Abstract
A local coil array for a magnetic resonance tomography unit includes a plurality of antenna coils for receiving magnetic resonance signals from a patient, a first frequency converter for converting the magnetic resonance signals to a first intermediate frequency, and a plurality of transmission coils for transmitting intermediate frequency signals by inductive coupling. The magnetic resonance tomography unit includes a field of view and a plurality of reception coils for inductively coupling to transmission coils of the local coil array. The plurality of reception coils is arranged next to the field of view such that the plurality of reception coils inductively couples with transmission coils of the local coil array arranged at a patient in the field of view.
