Abstract: A NMR conformal solenoidal coil includes a generally cylindrical parallel-wound solenoidal coil which can be oriented at any angle within the plane transverse to the static magnetic field. The cylindrical shape has been modified to conform to fit closely over hands, wrist, and feet. One end remains circular while the opposite is oval. A diagonal winding of the conductors about the generally cylindrical form are in parallel with the diagonally cut ends of the coil form, such that the coil windings are in a plane orthogonal to the transverse plane; thereby optimizing their efficiencies.
