Abstract
In a magnetic resonance apparatus a gradient coil system and an r.f. coil are combined so as to form a magnetically, electrically and structurally integrated coil system with current conductors in substantially the same cylinder. Thus, a substantial saving is realized as regards the activation energy required for generating gradient fields as well as for generating r.f. fields and notably r.f. stray-fields are also reduced.
