Abstract: A pillow, for supporting and fixing the shoulders of an examination subject in the respective housings of different shoulder coils in a magnetic resonance apparatus, snugly fills the inner area of the shoulder coil with at least three, and preferably four lobes with the lobes not laterally overlapping one another.

Abstract: A wheel suspension system for a motor vehicle has a steering swivel (1) attached to a beam (3) so as to be rotatable about a vertical axis (6). The vertical axis (6) runs approximately through the center (Z) of the wheel. The beam (3) is additionally coupled at its lower end to the bodywork via a link (8), the link (8) being swivelably mounted on the bodywork. Instead of the steering swivel (1), it is also possible to mount a spindle so as to be rotatable about a vertical axis through the center of the wheel. The suspension leg (4) is secured against rotation by coupling to a stabilizer (20).

Abstract: In a method for the operation of a diagnostic magnetic resonance apparatus, a number of local antennas are arranged at known positions with respect to a patient support. Before an activation of at least one of the local antennas for imaging, at least one characteristic property of each local antenna is presented in an overview image of a patient on the patient support. Based on this displayed characteristic property, the optimum local antenna or antennas best suited for obtaining a desired image is/are activated for obtaining image data.
