Abstract

An arrangement for transmission of digital signals in a magnetic resonance apparatus has a local coil that has reception antenna connected via an amplifier with an A/D converter so that a magnetic resonance signal received via the individual antenna is amplified as an analog signal and is converted into a digital signal. The A/D converter is connected at the output with a transmission device that is designed for capacitive coupling transmission of the digital signal.
