  • Methods and systems for fabricating magnetic resonance gradient coils
    Patent number: 6982552
    Abstract: Methods and apparatus for fabricating a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) gradient coil for generating magnetic field gradients are provided. The method includes determining a pattern of gradient current paths on a surface using a set of stream functions oriented in at least one of a z-gradient, a y-gradient; and an x-gradient, and arranging conductive material to define a current path that conforms to the determined gradient current paths.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 27, 2003
    Date of Patent: January 3, 2006
    Assignee: General Electric Company
    Inventors: Christopher Judson Hardy, John Frederick Schenck, William Daniel Barber, Cornelius Jan Von Morze
