Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for cooling hot spots on a body coil assembly of an MRI system. In one embodiment, an airflow guide of a body coil assembly of an MRI system comprises a first surface that forms an air passage when the airflow guide is positioned on the body coil assembly, the air passage enclosed by the first surface and a second, outer surface of an RF coil of the body coil assembly, the airflow guide configured to channel cool air generated by a fan to the second, outer surface of the RF coil. The airflow guide may be arranged circumferentially around a portion of the RF coil at one or more ends of the RF coil. The airflow guide may be manufactured as a plurality of airflow guide segments that are glued together.
