  • MULTI-CHANNEL MAGNETIC RESONANCE COIL
    Publication number: 20080180101
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for a coil having a plurality of resonant elements capable of radiofrequency transmission, reception, or both transmission and reception. One example includes a receive-only coil disposed within a transmit-only coil. Adjacent resonant elements are decoupled from one another by both capacitive elements and by the geometric configuration of the elements. Cables are coupled to each resonant element and are gathered at a junction in a particular manner.
    Type: Application
    Filed: November 20, 2007
    Publication date: July 31, 2008
    Inventors: Kenneth M. Bradshaw, Michael S. Jones, Joshua J. Holwell, Scott M. Schillak, Matthew T. Waks, Mark A. Watson, Brandon J. Tramm, Labros L. Petropoulos
  • MULTI-CHANNEL COIL FOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
    Publication number: 20080174314
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for a coil having a plurality of resonant elements capable of radiofrequency transmission, reception, or both transmission and reception. One example includes a multi-channel receive-only coil comprised of overlapping planar loops. Adjacent resonant elements are decoupled from one another by both capacitive elements and by the geometric configuration of the elements. Cables are coupled to each resonant element and are gathered at a junction in a particular manner.

  • OPEN COIL FOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING
    Publication number: 20080157768
    Abstract: This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for a coil having a plurality of resonant elements with one or more openings between elements. In some instances, resonant elements are spaced such that an opening is defined between each pair of adjacent resonant elements. An impedance is coupled to adjacent resonant elements. Cables are coupled to each resonant element and are gathered at a junction in a particular manner.
