Zusammenfassung:A magnetic resonance system includes a basic magnet that surrounds a cylindrical examination volume of the magnetic resonance system, the cylindrical examination volume defining a longitudinal axis, and a send structure configured to generate a high frequency excitation field in the examination volume. The high frequency excitation field is configured to excite an object to be examined in the examination volume, such that the object emits magnetic resonance signals. The basic magnet is configured to generate a basic magnetic field in the examination volume that is constant over time and at least substantially homogeneous spatially. The send structure includes at least first transmitting antennae and second transmitting antennae that are configured to load the examination volume with the high frequency excitation field. The first transmitting antennae are arranged in an examination table beneath a top surface thereof. The examination table is configured for conveyance through the examination volume. In additio
