Method for maintaining magnetic resonance apparatus used for investigation of patient, involves outputting maintenance command for maintenance of magnetic resonance apparatus, if sum of number of coils exceeds threshold value

摘要

The method involves detecting (100) number of high-frequency receiving coils. The detected number of coils is transferred (101) to CPU for remote service centers for summing (103) the number of coils. The sum of number of coils is compared with threshold value for determining (105) whether the sum of number of coils exceeds threshold value. The maintenance command for maintenance of magnetic resonance apparatus is outputted (106), if sum of number of coils exceeds threshold value. The threshold value is chosen so that enough time for maintenance of coils is enabled. An independent claim is included for system for maintaining magnetic resonance apparatus.
