Abstract

In a method for noise reduction in the operation of a gradient coil of a magnetic resonance apparatus, at least a portion of the gradient coil is in contact with a reaction resin molding material. During operation of the gradient coil the reaction resin molding material is maintained at a temperature that is in the region of the glass transition temperature of the reaction resin molding material.
