Eddy-Current-Compensated RF Pulse Design for Parallel Excitation
Introduction: High-performance RF coils and shielded Gradient coils [1] for high or ultra high field MRI often require the use of RF shields that are in close proximity to the imaged volume. These shields can sometimes generate Eddy-Currents that are not adequately compensated for using the pre-emphasis algorithm [2] of the scanner. K-space trajectory measurements [3] can be used to compensate ...
متن کاملNew horizons in MR technology: RF coil designs and trends.
Parallel imaging techniques have developed very rapidly, and realization of their full potential has required the design of magnetic resonance (MR) scanners with ever-increasing numbers of receiver channels (32 to 128). In particular, 1.5- and 3-Tesla fast MR imaging applications are now used in everyday clinical practice. Both strengths require maximum achievable signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) an...
متن کاملShielding Effectiveness of a Lossy Metallic Enclosure
In this paper, shielding effectiveness (SE) of a perforated enclosure with imperfectly conducting walls is evaluated. To this end, first, an accurate numerical technique based on method of Moments (MoM) ispresented. In this method, lossy metallic walls of the enclosure are replaced by equivalent electric surfacecurrent sources. Then, the impedance boundary condition on the imperfectly conductin...
متن کامل1H/23Na dual-tuned RF Unicoil for human body MR imaging at 3T
[Introduction] When a radio frequency (RF) coil is designed and built for MR imaging, its performance is judged on the basis of achieving uniform imaging B1field and high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). However, there is an intrinsic trade-off between B1-field uniformity and high SNR in the configuration of RF coil; a large RF coil tends to generate a more uniform B1-field but lower SNR, because i...
متن کاملShielding Designs for the future FAIR project
Introduction In December 2003 GSI was given the first step of approval by the Hesse Ministry for environment to build the new international accelerator facility for beams of ions and antiprotons [1]. This approval was passed after the assessment by the radiation protection experts TÜV [2]. In order to meet the requirements to build the facilities for the FAIR project [3] shielding calculations ...
