Conductor Arrangement with a Dielectric Standing Wave Trap

[0021]According to FIG. 1, an element 1 of a magnetic resonance system (e.g., a local coil) is connected to another device (not illustrated in FIG. 1) via a cable 2. According to FIGS. 2 to 5, the cable 2 has a conductor 3 that extends along a conductor axis 4. According to FIG. 1, the cable 2 is in the form of a coaxial cable. The coaxial cable 2 has an internal conductor 5. The conductor 3 is in the form of a shield of the coaxial cable 2. An insulation 6 is arranged between the internal conductor 5 and the conductor 3. A cable sheath 7 is arranged around the outside of the shield 3. This refinement, in which the cable 2 is in the form of a coaxial cable, constitutes the general case. However, in individual cases, the conductor 3 may be a “normal” conductor that is surrounded only by a cable sheath 7 or only by a core insulation.

[0022]The conductor 3 is exposed to an RF field F from the outside (e.g., to the excitation field of a whole-body transmission antenna 8 of the magnetic reso
