Abstract
A magnetic resonance (MR) probe head comprises a detecting device with at least one antenna system which is cryogenically cooled by a cooling device, and a cooled preamplifier in a preamplifier housing which is spatially separated from the detecting device, and a thermally insulating connecting means via which the detecting device and the preamplifier housing are connected, wherein the connecting means comprises at least one cooling line for supplying and/or returning a cooling fluid, and with at least one RF line for transmitting the electric signals. The connecting means is implemented as a mechanically flexible connecting line with mechanically flexible RF lines and cooling lines disposed therein. The MR probe head is easy to handle and can be highly sensitive, wherein the detecting device can be quickly installed, removed and put into operation.
