  • Sheath wave barrier for magnetic resonance (MR) applications
    Patent number: 11280861
    Abstract: A sheath wave barrier (2) for suppressing electromagnetic RF coupling phenomena of an electrical cable (4) at a predetermined suppression frequency (coo) in a magnetic resonance (MR) imaging or spectroscopy apparatus, wherein the cable is configured as a shielded cable with at least one inner conductor (6) and a peripherally surrounding electrically conducting cable sheath (8), comprises a segment of said shielded cable and a primary inductor formed from said shielded cable segment between a first cable location (12) and a second cable location (14). A secondary inductor (16) formed by a conductor is concentrically arranged within or around the primary inductor between said first and second cable locations.
    Type: Grant
