Abstract

The present disclosure may provide a magnetic resonance (MR) system. The MR system may include a magnet assembly, a gradient coil assembly, and a shim assembly. The magnet assembly may be configured to generate a main magnetic field. The magnet assembly may include a magnet and a cryostat configured to cool the magnet located inside the cryostat. The cryostat may form a bore. The gradient coil assembly may be configured to generate a gradient magnetic field. The gradient coil assembly may be located inside the bore. The shim assembly may be configured to at least partially shield a stray field which is generated by the gradient coil assembly and to which the magnet is subjected. The shim assembly may be located outside the gradient coil assembly.
