Abstract
The disclosure relates to a method, a computer program, a data storage medium, a system, and a local-coil apparatus for a magnetic resonance tomography MRT unit having at least one receive coil configured to receive an MRT signal and a receive amplifier apparatus having at least one output amplifier unit and configured to amplify the received MRT signal in order to drive an analog-to-digital converter ADC. The at least one output amplifier unit is configured to amplify the MRT signal, below a signal-level threshold value, by a high gain, and, above the signal-level threshold value, by a low gain. The receive amplifier apparatus is configured to change a bias current of the at least one output amplifier unit according to a defined MRT signal level.
