Slotted Waveguide Array RF Coil for Ultra-High-Field MRI
Slotted Waveguide Array RF Coil for Ultra-High-Field MRIProblem to be Solved:Current magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology utilizes a relatively low static magnetic field (B0 ≤ 3T). Ultra-high field (B0 ≥ 7) imagers increase sensitivity and functionality of MRI overall, but come with their own set of challenges. At higher magnetic fields,...

Method and Apparatus for Generation of Traveling Waves in High-Field and Ultra-High-Field MRI Systems Using Bore-Extended, Subject-Loaded Helical Antennas
Summary:The main area of engineering research in advancing next-generation MRI scanners at high (B0=3T) and ultra-high (B0 > 3 T) polarizing fields is in improving RF coils and RF magnetic fields (B1) in an MRI bore loaded with a human body or a phantom. This invention features a new RF coil, the subject-loaded multi-channel helical-antenna RF...
