ABSTRACT:
In an rf coil of a magnetic resonance apparatus steps are taken to optimize a uniform rf measuring field. To this end, axially extending current conductors are provided with means for generating a non-constant effective current intensity in current paths extending across a cylindrical surface so as to be parallel with a symmetry axis of the coil. This can be realized by deflecting axial conductors away from the cylindrical surface, by partly shielding them, by adding auxiliary coils to be individually controlled, or by connecting L-C circuits across the current conductors.
