Abstract
In a magnet arrangement for a diagnostic magnetic resonance apparatus, first and second units operate in combination to generate a magnetic field, the second unit being arranged at a distance from the first, the units determining a region having a substantially homogeneous magnetic field, which is arranged between the two magnetic field-generating units. An access to the region is oriented obliquely to the spacing of the two magnetic field-generating units. The magnetic field-generating units respectively have first and second outer transversal dimensions with the second outer transversal dimension being smaller than the first outer transversal dimension. The first magnetic field-generating unit has an opening that is fashioned as an additional access to the region.
