ABSTRACT:
In a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus having a comparatively large measurement region, such as used for medical diagnosis, high-order contributions to the magnetic field are compensated for by the addition of pairs of rings made of a soft-magnetic material, so that the homogeneity of the magnetic field is locally increased to a high degree. This makes possible to use a substantially shorter coil while the field homogeneity in the measurement zone is still improved.
