Devices operating in the magnet bore, such as coil arrays, receivers or shim inserts become ever more sophisticated as well as the employed image acquisition schemes. However, quantitative testing for their influence on the gradient switching performance is often difficult and time consuming. In this work we present a methodology for measuring, evaluating and predicting eddy current effects fast and quantitatively, employing a dynamic magnetic field camera and a framework of linear time invariant system characterization. For demonstration, standard components and several frequently applied RF coils are assessed.
