Abstract
A surface coil for magnetic resonance examinations which serves to generate or receive high-frequency magnetic fields. The loop forming the surface coil is divided into at least two, preferably equal loop sections. At least the loop section to be coupled to the high-frequency receiver or high-frequency generator comprises two inner conductors which are accommodated in an outer conductor arrangement and one part of which extends (at the center of this loop section) to the high-frequency generator or high-frequency receiver, its other part being connected to the other loop section. A capacitive coupling is obtained between the loop sections so that a high-frequency alternating current can flow in the loop formed by the loop sections, said current producing a high-frequency magnetic field.
