The invention relates to an MR arrangement which includes a medical
instrument (3), an RF arrangement (17) which is provided thereon and in
which at least one microcoil (1) and a capacitor (2) are connected so as
to form a resonant circuit, and also an optical signal lead (4) via which
a light signal is applied to the RF arrangement. In order to achieve
simple and fast determination of the position of the medical instrument
(3) within the examination zone of an MR apparatus, the invention
proposes to provide a modulator (20) for modulating the light signal
applied to the RF arrangement and also an optoelectrical converter (5)
which converts the modulated light signal into an electrical signal and
is coupled to the resonant circuit in such a manner that the resonant
circuit is triggered by the electrical signal from the optoelectrical
converter (5) so as to emit an RF field.
