    摘要: A radio frequency coil for magnetic resonance imaging includes an active coil member (70, 701, 170, 270) that defines an imaging volume. The active coil member has a first open end (74) with a first cross-sectional dimension (dactive). A shield coil member (72, 721, 722, 723, 724, 725, 172, 1722, 272) substantially surrounds the active coil member. The shield coil member has a constricted open end (88) arranged proximate to the first open end of the active coil member with a constricted cross-sectional dimension (dconst) that is less than the cross-sectional dimension (dShieid) of the shield coil member. In some embodiments, the radio frequency coil further includes an outer shield coil member (100) that is substantially larger than the shield coil member (72, 721, 722, 723, 724, 725, 172, 1722, 272), and surrounds both the active coil member and the shield coil member.

    摘要: The invention relates to an MR method in which the nuclear magnetization is enhanced under the influence of a first steady magnetic field and a second steady magnetic field acts on the nuclei previously influenced by the first magnetic field. According to the invention, the two magnetic fields overlap in time and enclose an angle other than 0° relative to one another, the angle preferably amounting to 90°. The enhanced nuclear magnetization is then sustained after the activation of the first steady magnetic field while the direction of the nuclear magnetization is determined by the second steady magnetic field. The use of two mutually perpendicular magnetic fields is advantageous notably for Overhauser imaging methods, because it enables the use of mutually perpendicular RF fields for the ESR saturation and the MR excitation, thus uncoupling the coils generating such RF fields from one another.
