  • Integrated power supply for surface coils
    Patent number: 7602187
    Abstract: A radio frequency receive coil for receiving a magnetic resonance signal includes a radio frequency antenna. The radio frequency antenna includes one or more electrical conductors (72, 74, 76, 78, 172, 173, 176, 180, 252, 254), at least one of which is a substantially hollow conductor (72, 78, 172, 252, 254). At least one electrical component (100, 110, 110?, 110?, 140, 160, 200) is mounted to be shielded from interfering with the MR signal by disposing it inside the substantially hollow conductor. The at least one electrical component can be, for example, a battery (100, 160, 200), a storage capacitor (140), or coil electronics (110, 110?,110?).
