Abstract
An antenna arrangement for a magnetic resonance apparatus has at least two adjacent individual antennas. Each individual antenna has at least one conductor loop. For mutual decoupling, the conductor loops of the adjacent individual antennas each have an interruption. The interruptions are electrically connected in parallel and are jumpered with at least one capacitive element, the capacitive element having a capacitance value at which the individual antennas are decoupled from one another.
Claims5
An antenna arrangement for a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising:
- at least two adjacent individual antennas, each individual antenna having at least one conductor loop, each conductor loop having an interruption therein;
- an electrical connection directly connecting the respective interruptions in the respective conductor loops of said at least two individual antennas in parallel;
- and
- at least one capacitive element connected across at least one of said interruptions, said capacitive element having a capacitance for decoupling said at least two individual antennas from each other.
