Abstract
The invention concerns an arrangement for magnetic field measurement of a measurement object (in particular a gradient coil in a magnetic resonance apparatus) with a magnetic field sensor that is designed to measure a magnetic field of the measurement object and with a measurement mechanism on which the magnetic field sensor is arranged at a first position. The measurement object has detectable reference points that can be used for calibration of a spatial position of a position sensor. The calibrated position sensor is arranged at a second position of the measurement mechanism, such that, with the first position and the second position, a spatial position relative to the measurement object can be associated with each magnetic field strength that is measured by the magnetic field sensor.
