By considering the current flow around a probe guide of a circular cross section, it is shown that the perturbed magnetic field can be partially "corrected" with a three coil probe. The theory has been tested in a coaxial cylindrical geometry, an analogue of a Z-pinch discharge. The spatial resolution l of the three coil probe is roughly one half of the probe guide radius, a. For current distributions which vary slowly with distance (scale length, λ) it is shown that the fractional error in the magnetic field is ~ 0.2(l/λ)2. For a single coil probe the error is at least four times as large.
