RF Field Analysis for High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The combined field integral equation method is used to calculate the RF B1 field produced by a transmission line resonator element for high field magnetic resonance systems. The proposed method provides faster electromagnetic field results than the finite difference time domain approach. A field localization method is also discussed.

CYTOGENETIC EFFECTS OF MAGNETIC AND RADIOFREQUENCY FIEL DS OF NMRI SYSTEMS ON THE FREQUENCY OF CHROMOSOMAL ABERRATIONS INHUMAN LYMPHOCYTES IN THE PRESENCE OR ABSENCE OF CYTOSINE ARABINOSIDE
Application of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI) as a non-invasive and accurate imaging procedure has been widely used in recent years. Meanwhile, the biological effects of magnetic fields of several tesla (T) and high energy radiofrequency (RF) is not fully known yet. Because of controversy over this issue, the present research has been carried out in order to verify the effects of...
متن کامل3-D RF Coil Design Considerations for MRI
High-frequency coils are widely used in medical applications, such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems. A typical medical MRI includes a local radio frequency transmit/receive coil. This coil is designed for maximum energy transfer or wave transfer through magnetic resonance. Mutual inductance is a dynamic parameter that determines the energy quantity to be transferred wirelessly by ele...
متن کاملFast B1 field localisation in high-field MRI systems
In high-magnetic magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems (7 T and above), the radio frequency (RF) field shows greater inhomogeneity compared with clinical MRI systems (1.5 and 3.0 T). In multichannel RF coils, driving each coil element with convex optimisation can reduce non-uniformity of the RF field in a region of interest. In this Letter, a periodic compressed method (PCM) and a PCM after ...
