1. A magnetic resonance imaging system comprising:
a field generation unit including at least two magnet sections configured to generate a B0 magnetic field, the at least two magnet sections having an angle between each other to form a triangular half-open space that encloses at least a part of an imaging volume within the B0 magnetic field, the imaging volume being configured to be accessed via an open space of the triangular half-open space in at least one spatial directions at an angle form a main direction of magnetic field lines of the B0 magnetic field in the imaging volume;
a support structure to structurally support the field generation unit;
a radiofrequency system including at least one radiofrequency antenna configured to at least one of transmit radiofrequency radiation or receive radiofrequency radiation; and
a gradient field system including at least one gradient coil to generate at least one magnetic gradient field.
