Radiofrequency Coil Array Design and Optimisation for Magnetic Resonance Low Field Imaging
Radiofrequency (RF) coil phased arrays are getting more and more important for accelerating the imaging speed and for gaining better signal to noise ratio (SNR) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The approach is conceptually similar to phased array used in radar techniques hence it is used to be called MRI phased array coils. To get maximum benefits from this technique, coil and preamp decoup...
متن کاملNovel Concepts for RF Surface Coils with Integrated Receivers
Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is a powerful non-invasive reconstruction tool used primarily in the medical community to produce high quality images of the human anatomy. Surface coils are Radio Frequency (RF) systems typically deployed for receiving the MR signals. Multiple surface coils, or an array of coils, are employed to obtain a localized improvement in the signal-to-noise ratio withou...
متن کاملGeometrically Decoupled Phased Array Coils for Mouse Imaging
Introduction: Roemer et al [1] introduced phased array surface coils which offer high SNR over a large field of view. Phased array volume coils, introduced by Hayes et al [2] have high SNR at the surface and centre of the volume. Most array coil designs typically employ a combination of geometrical and additional techniques, such as isolating preamplifiers, for element-to-element decoupling. Th...
متن کاملActively Detunable 8-channel Small Animal Transceive Volume Array for 9.4T MRI systems
Introduction Ultra-high field MRI systems for small animals have seen a rapid development over recent years in a continuous effort to enhance SNR and spectral resolution of MRI images. To circumvent the associated high-field B1 inhomogeneity problem, methods such as RF shimming and Transmit SENSE have been proposed [1-2]. To benefit from the advantages of these techniques, dedicated phased-arra...
متن کاملRF Coil Technology for Small-Animal MRI
A review of the theory, technology, and practice of RF coils for small-animal MRI is presented that includes a brief overview of MR S/N analysis and discussions of the various coils commonly used in small-animal MR – surface coils, linear volume coils, birdcages, and their derivatives. The scope is limited to mid-range coils – coils where the product (fd) of the frequency f and the coil diamete...
