MAGNETIC RESONANCE SYSTEM AND OPERATING METHOD THEREFOR

摘要

In a magnetic resonance (MR) apparatus and an operating method therefor, the scanner of the MR apparatus has at least one connector for connecting a radio-frequency coil, as well as a control computer with a display screen. Connection of a radio-frequency coil to the connector causes at least one item of coil identification information, and selection of at least one measurement protocol from among a number of measurement protocols for recording magnetic resonance signals with the connected coil to be made by the control computer as a function of the at least one item of coil identification information.

主权项

1. A method for operating a magnetic resonance apparatus comprising a magnetic resonance scanner having a radio-frequency coil and a connector that connects the radio-frequency coil to a control computer that operates the magnetic resonance scanner, said control computer comprising a display interface, said method comprising:
connecting a radio-frequency coil to said connector; providing said computer with at least one item of coil identification information that identifies said radio-frequency coil connected to said connector; and in said control computer, automatically selecting at least one measurement protocol for operating said magnetic resonance scanner, from among a plurality of different measurement protocols, for acquiring magnetic resonance data using the connected radio-frequency coil and, in said control computer, making said selection dependent on said at least one item of coil identification information.
