Virtual coil concept for improved parallel MRI employing conjugate symmetric signals.
A new approach for utilizing conjugate k-space symmetry for improved parallel MRI performance is presented. By generating virtual coils containing conjugate symmetric k-space signals from actual coils, additional image- and coil-phase information can be incorporated into the reconstruction process for parallel acquisition techniques. In that way the reconstruction conditions are improved, resul...
متن کاملComparison of Coil Realisations for Applications Employing Parallel Excitation
Introduction Various coil geometries have been proposed as transceiver elements in volume coil arrays for parallel excitation (PEX) and reception. Among them are TEM resonators [1], shielded surface coils [2], current sheet antennas (CSA) [3] and ReCav [4] structures. We compare these well known geometries with a printed bow-tie structure which is frequently used in antenna engineering because ...
متن کامل3-D RF Coil Design Considerations for MRI
High-frequency coils are widely used in medical applications, such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. A typical medical MRI includes a local radio frequency transmit/receive coil. This coil is designed for maximum energy transfer or wave transfer through magnetic resonance. Mutual inductance is a dynamic parameter that determines the energy quantity to be transferred wirelessly by ele...
متن کاملHybrid TEM/Loop Coil Array for Parallel High Field MRI
Introduction As B0 field strengths increase, there is an almost linear increase in SNR. However, new problems arise at higher field strengths, such as a higher SAR and B1-field inhomogeneity. To counteract these problems, multiple transmit channels are necessary to improve the image homogeneity, this can be achieved with static RF-shimming [1]. In this work, a new transceive surface coil array ...
متن کاملAn introduction to coil array design for parallel MRI.
The basic principles of radiofrequency coil array design for parallel MRI are described from both theoretical and practical perspectives. Because parallel MRI techniques rely on coil array sensitivities to provide spatial information about the sample, a careful choice of array design is essential. The concepts of coil array spatial encoding are first discussed from four qualitative perspectives...
