A local coil for an MRI imaging system includes an antenna containing a first detuning circuit and a second detuning circuit, and a connection connected to the antenna between a first connection point on the antenna and a second connection point on the antenna. The connection is configured to be short-circuited by at least one diode. The first connection point and the second connection point are situated spatially between a first partial region and a second partial region of the antenna.

A magnetic resonance coil for transmitting and/or receiving magnetic resonance signals is provided. The magnetic resonance coil includes at least two overlapping coil elements. Coil conductors of the at least two overlapping coil elements intersect in intersection regions and are arranged on a support. Mutually overlapping coil elements of the at least two overlapping coil elements are arranged on different sides of the support. The support is formed from at least three layers of a support material. A cavity that is filled with air or a filler material, the dielectric constant of the filler material being lower than the dielectric constant of the support material, is provided in the intersection regions in a middle layer of the at least three layers.

摘要:
In a method for processing radio frequency signals of a magnetic resonance imaging system in which the coil portion of the magnetic resonance imaging system includes a body coil and a local coil, radio frequency signals are supplied to the body coil, and these radio frequency signals are coupled to said local coil, and transmitted by said local coil into a region to be examined. A corresponding radio frequency system has a local coil and a body coil, with power coupling between the local coil and the body coil; during the phase for transmitting the radio frequency signals. The body coil serves to couple the radio frequency signals to be transmitted to the local coil, and the local coil serves to transmit the coupled radio frequency signals to a region to be examined. This method and system allow the transmitting function of the local coil to be achieved without having a coil plug on a patient bed to provide a radio frequency signal transmitting channel.

A double resonance coil arrangement for a magnetic resonance device has at least two coils, each having a coil conductor, in which at least one first capacitor, as well as at least one inductor forming an oscillating circuit with a second capacitor, are connected. The inductors of two adjacently arranged coils are at a distance from one another and form a transformer. The capacitors, the inductor and the distance are dimensioned such that each coil is double resonant and the at least two coils are decoupled from each other by the transformer.

An antenna element for magnetic resonance applications has at least one sub-section that extends along a section axis and is adjacent to an auxiliary circuit. The antenna element has a coupling section and an auxiliary circuit section that is inductively coupled to the sub-section via the coupling section. The auxiliary circuit section extends parallel to the sub-section at a distance from the section axis. The auxiliary circuit has controllable tuning elements therein. Depending on their control state, a radio-frequency excitation current flowing in the sub-section causes, at respectively different times, each of a leading auxiliary current, or a lagging auxiliary current, or no auxiliary current to flow in the auxiliary current section.
