  • MR LOCAL COIL AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SAME
    Publication number: 20230273280
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance (MR) local coil, a magnetic resonance apparatus with an MR local coil, and a method for producing an MR local coil are provided. The MR local coil includes an outer casing, an antenna structure, and a frame for accommodating the antenna structure. The outer casing is embodied in a flexible manner and surrounds an inner area. The frame is embodied in a rigid manner, at least in regions, and is connected to the outer casing in a fixed manner. The antenna structure is arranged in the inner area of the outer casing and is held in position by the frame.
