Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a magnetic resonance imaging scanner subassembly capable of realizing a low noise level. SOLUTION: A magnetic resonance imaging(MRI) scanner subassembly 10 has preferably an annular cylindrical enclosure 12 containing a first vacuum, and an MRI gradient coil assembly 14 is laid in the enclosure 12 in the first vacuum. Furthermore, an annular cylindrical housing 16 is preferably included. This housing 16 is coaxially aligned with the enclosure 12 and contains a second vacuum higher than the first vacuum. Also, an MRI superconducting main coil 18 is laid in the housing 16 in the second vacuum. In addition, the MRI gradient coil assembly 14 of another subassembly 10 has a threshold excitation frequency, and an insulating mount assemblage 30 supports the MRI gradient coil assembly 14.
