  • Publication number: 20230078150
    Abstract: A double-resonant coil includes a closed conductor loop divided into at least two segments that are each connected via a second connection element configured to be converted from an electrically conductive state to an electrically insulating state. The double-resonant coil further includes an inductor or a capacitor connected in series to a first connection element so as to allow excitation of the closed conductor loop in a dipole mode at one frequency and with a homogeneous power distribution at a second frequency.

  • Publication number: 20220236353
    Abstract: A dipole antenna array includes at least two dipole antenna elements. Each respective dipole antenna element has at one end a fold which consists of a bend, a bent region, and the projection of the bent region of the dipole antenna element onto a length of the dipole antenna element. Each respective dipole antenna element at least partially encloses a cavity.

  • Publication number: 20220137165
    Abstract: A coil assembly for use as a transmission and/or receiving coil in an MR system comprises a dipole antenna assembly with multiple dipole antennas. Connection elements are converted from an electrically conductive state to an electrically non-conductive state. In the electrically conductive state, the dipole antennas form a cylindrical volume coil and/or a conductor loop assembly, in particular a flat conductor loop assembly. The connection elements comprise blocking circuits which automatically block when a high-frequency alternating voltage with a frequency corresponding to the blocking frequency of the connection element blocking circuits is applied to the coil assembly.

  • Patent number: 11054491
    Abstract: A dipole antenna assembly includes at least two dipole antennas mechanically, but not electrically, connected to each other. The at least two dipole antennas cross at an intersection point and form dipole antenna arms starting from the intersection point. The dipole antenna arms are arranged in a half-space.
