Abstract
The disclosure relates to a device for generating images of an examination subject with nuclear magnetic resonance in which a coil system for applying magnetic fields to the examination subject and for detecting the excursion of the magnetic nuclear spins of the examination subject from their state of equilibrium due to a high frequency magnetic excitation pulse is provided. The coil system exhibits gradient coils which are fed by a control device and fix the position of the examined layer in the examination subject with reference to a three-dimensional coordinate system with an x-, y- and z-axis. The control device exhibits a first setting for the selection of the axis (x, y, z) of the coordinate system which lies in the examined plane, and exhibits a second setting for the selection of the inclination of the examined plane.
