Neil,
I think you're talking about the edges of the shimmed volume of the magnet, or the coil.
Magnets are shimmed to a specific volume in the field (every model magnet is different). When you attempt to scan an object that reaches the edge of this volume you will see distortion from imaging the unshimmed area of the magnet.
Also shimming large objects that exceed the range of the receiver portion of the coil will cause distortions.
Hopefully this answers your question?
Good Luck,
Dan McGuan
