Abstract

See full text

In a method and device for increasing the efficiency of a gradient coil system in a magnetic resonance tomography apparatus to optimally use the efficiency of the gradient system, the individually different sensitivity of each patient regarding peripheral nerve stimulation (PNS) is determined prior to the MR examination by applying a variable electrical field, and the corresponding maximum magnetic field is determined by scaling, and the MR apparatus is correspondingly adjusted.
