A radio frequency volume coil (136； 236) for use in a magnetic resonance examination system (10), comprising:—a radio frequency shield (148； 248),—a pair of radio frequency conductive loop members (138； 238) spaced along a common longitudinal axis (140； 240),—a plurality of axially arranged radio frequency conductive members electrically connected to at least one of the radio frequency conductive loop members (138； 238), wherein—at least two axially arranged radio frequency conductive members electrically interconnect the radio frequency conductive loop members (138； 238) as interconnecting members (144； 244), and—at least two of the axially arranged radio frequency conductive members are axially arranged in an aligned manner at an azimuthal position within the range between azimuthal positions of the at least two interconnecting members (144； 244), and electrically serve as shield-connecting members (146； 246) for one of the two radio frequency conductive loop members (138； 238) to the radio frequency shield (148； 248),—at least one installation space (152； 252) within an inner volume of the radio frequency volume coil (136； 236) that is accessible from outside the radio frequency volume coil (136； 236) at least in a radial direction (56) within the range between the two different azimuthal positions of the two interconnecting members (144； 244), and within a range of the axial direction between axial positions of ends of the shield-connecting members (146； 246) that are distal to the radio frequency conductive loop member (138； 238) they are connected to； and—a magnetic resonance examination system (10) comprising such radio frequency volume coil (136； 236).
