✦ Synopsis

The invention involves a device for generating images using nuclear magnetic resonance in which coils are provided for applying magnetic fields to the patient and for recording the displacement of the atomic nuclei of the patient from their equilibrium state by a high-frequency magnetic excitation pulse. Calibration devices are attached in the coils so that, for each image plane selected, they are at least partially intersected by the image plane during measurement of a patient.
