The present invention relates to an arrangement (10) for influencing and/or detecting magnetic particles in a region of action (300). The arrangement (10) comprises selection means (210) for generating a magnetic selection field (211) having a pattern in space of its magnetic field strength such that a first sub-zone (301) having a low magnetic field strength and a second sub zone (302) having a higher magnetic field strength are formed in the region of action (300), drive means (220) for changing the position in space of the two sub-zones (301, 302) in the region of action (300) by means of a magnetic drive field (221) so that the magnetization of the magnetic material changes locally, and receiving means (230) for acquiring detection signals, which detection signals depend on the magnetization in the region of action (300), which magnetization is influenced by the change in the position in space of the first and second sub-zone (301, 302). The selection means (210) comprises a permanent magnetic assembly having at least one permanent magnetic unit (213) comprising a plurality of magnetic sub-elements (214) wherein the magnetic sub-elements (214) have individually fixed magnetization orientation, and are bonded together to form said at least one permanent magnetic unit (213).
