摘要:
Various methods and systems are provided for a flexible, lightweight, low-cost radio frequency (RF) coil array of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. In one example, a RF coil assembly for a MRI system includes a loop portion comprising distributed capacitance wire conductors, a coupling electronics portion including a pre-amplifier. A coupler slidably connects two adjacent coil loops together. An open area is formed inside the loops enabling tissue manipulation or biopsies from interventional or surgical procedures.
