Abstract

In a nuclear magnetic resonance apparatus, a loudspeaker element free of magnetic material acts as an acoustic reproduction element. The loudspeaker element is arranged in the magnet space so that the main field of the magnet acts to generate a Lorentz driving force for the element. Together with a microphone function or an additional microphone (50) and an external loudspeaker.microphone system, a two-way acoustic communication system can thus be formed. Such a loudspeaker element free from magnetic material does not produce field disturbances in the magnet.
