Abstract:
A MRI gradient coil set includes a uniplanar Z-gradient coil, a biplanar X-gradient coil, and a biplanar Y-gradient coil. The coil set provides an open Z-axis face.
Abstract:
A system and method for configuring coils in a coil array are provided. The system includes a coil arrangement for a medical imaging system. The coil arrangement includes a plurality of coil elements for a medical imaging system and a plurality of twisted portions in combination with at least one of the plurality of coil elements.
Abstract:
A RF receive coil system for imaging a breast on a human chest with a horizontal field MRI system includes a volume saddle coil adapted to be contoured about the chest; and a Helmholtz coil having a lower portion adapted to be contoured about the chest and an upper portion adapted to be above the chest The coils are operable in quadrature mode.
Abstract:
A MRI array coil for imaging a patient having a head, and a torso, includes a base; a left handle extending from the base; a left head coil array attached to the left handle for proximity to the head; a right handle extending from the base; and a right head coil array mounted on the right handle for proximity to the head.
Abstract:
A MRI RF coil includes a first solenoidal section, a second solenoidal section, and a third solenoidal section. The first section is between the second and third sections. The first section has a counter-rotational orientation with respect to the second and third sections.
Abstract:
A coil and method for a medical imaging are provided. The coil includes a first section and a second section. The first and second sections form a loop and are configured in a diagonal arrangement.
Abstract:
A partially parallel acquisition RF coil array for imaging a sample includes at least a first, a second and a third coil adapted to be arranged circumambiently about the sample and to provide both contrast data and spatial phase encoding data.
Abstract:
An MRI array coil system for neurovascular and spine imaging of a human includes a neck coil having a split top; a dome-like head coil having a dome region, the head coil being slidable between a closed position adjacent to the neck coil and an open position spaced away from the neck coil; a posterior torso coil attached to the neck coil; and an anterior torso coil adapted to cooperate with the posterior coil.
