Abstract

A method is provided for calibration of a magnetic resonance device with a transmitting device for generating an excitation field. In a first acquisition phase, a first transmitting coil element is detuned, at least one second transmitting coil element is tuned, and an MR data set is acquired using the transmitting device. In a second acquisition phase, the first transmitting coil element, the at least one second transmitting coil element are tuned, and at least one further MR data set is acquired using the transmitting device. By an arithmetic unit, a calibration factor is determined based on the MR data set and the at least one further MR data set for calculating a total voltage value at a feeding point of the first transmitting coil element from voltage values, which may be measured at a measuring point of an electrical supply line of the first transmitting coil element.
