Abstract
An MRI imaging device has a cylindrical magnet configuration, gradient coils and an Rf coil. The magnet has a primary and a secondary electromagnet on the same longitudinal center axis but spaced apart along the axis. Each electromagnet is a coil located within a flux guiding member preferably having a cylindrical structure closed at one end. The electromagnets provide a static magnetic field having substantial homogeneity in a central air gap A.sub.G extending from within the primary electromagnet coil axially beyond the primary coil toward the secondary electromagnet coil.
