Connect all cables and tubes of the animal bed and the RF Coil with the corresponding
counterparts of the Basic Animal Holder as shown in Figure 5.7:
Water connections of the warm water bed (1)
Isofluorane supply (2)
Scavenging (3)
RF cable (4) (for head RF Coils only)
For body RF Coils this should be done after placing the animal on the animal bed
since the coil is not integral part of the animal bed. Please refer to section 5.2.4
on page 69.
