Abstract

A magnetic resonance apparatus includes receive coils and a receiver device for processing magnetic resonance signals received by coil elements of the receive coils. The receive coils are subdivided into at least a first group having at least one receive coil and a second group having at least one receive coil. The receive coils of the first group are connected to the receiver device via a hardwired communications link, and the receive coils of the second group are each connectable or connected to the receiver device via a wireless communications link.
