摘要： In a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus comprising a surface coil, the circuit in which the surface coil is included is interrupted by means of a PIN diode in the non-active state of the coil. In addition to the PIN diode in the resonant circuit of the surface coil, PIN diodes are included in all supply leads of the resonant circuit. An advantage thereof consists in that no RF currents will flow in the supply leads and that the induction voltages generated in the surface coil in the active state of the transmitter coil of the device are actually rectified by the diodes and themselves form a blocking voltage for the PIN diodes included in the circuit. As a result, the biasing of the PIN diodes is increased, so that they remain blocked.

摘要： In magnetic resonance imaging apparatus in which bird-cage coils are used in combination with other coils, a capacitance is bridged by means of an inductive element. Substantial detuning and hence adequate uncoupling of the bird-cage coil from the other (receiving) coil is achieved. Use can be made of the already present coaxial transmission line via which the RF energy is applied to the bird-cage coil. Connecting the core and the jacket of the coaxial transmission line there is arranged a diode switch so that the bird-cage coil circuit can be electronically detuned, thus enabling fast switching on and off of the bird-cage coil.

Each input of the adder unit (45a, . . . ) is connected to one of the surface coils (33a, . . . ) and the surface coils connected to the inputs of one and the same adder unit constitute a contiguous part of the array (33). The output of each adder unit (45a, . . . ) is connected to one of the processing channels (49a, . . . ) of the signal processing circuit (15). As a result of these steps, the number of processing channels (49a, . . . ) can be substantially smaller than the number of surface coils (33a, . . . ). Consequently, the construction of the signal processing circuit (15) is comparatively simple and inexpensive.

摘要： In a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus an RF rotating field is generated by applying RF energy to two mutually perpendicular coil systems, a 1/4.lambda. lead being provided between the connection points of the systems. In that case the drive points and the detection signal output points are not the same, so that in the case of a change-over from transmission to reception, the connection between the transmitter and the receiver must be switched over. In the magnetic resonance imaging apparatus in accordance with the invention, a phase difference of 180.degree. is created between two junctions by means of 1/4.lambda. leads so that an intermediate junction will actually not carry a voltage. This point (for transmission and reception, two different points) is connected to ground by means of a PIN diode. A simplification enables connection of the transmitter as well as the receiver to the transmitter/receiver coil system via a single coaxial cable.
