Assessment of the Characteristics of MRI Coils in Terms of RF Non-Homogeneity Using Routine Spin Echo Sequences
Introduction: One of the major causes of image non-uniformity in MRI is due to the existence of non-homogeneity in RF receive and transmit. This can be the most effective source of error in quantitative studies in MRI imaging. Part of this non-homogeneity demonstrates the characteristics of RF coil and part of it is due to the interaction of RF field with the material being imaged...
متن کاملRadio Frequency Front-End Circuitry for an Implantable Multiple Frequency Coil
Introduction: Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging and spectroscopy of implanted bio-artificial tissue constructs can be improved by placing a NMR receiver coil around the implanted construct and receive the NMR signal response through inductive coupling with the external surface coil [1]. The limitation of this approach is that the implanted coil cannot be di...
متن کاملMicro-scale inductively coupled radiofrequency resonators on fluidic platforms for wireless nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy
Introduction Micro-scale inductively coupled rf resonators enable wireless investigation of small sample volumes in a conventional NMR spectrometer. The inductively coupled approach has the advantage of focussing the sensitivity and rf power on the small sample volume, without the need for any connections to the spectrometer. Preceding research demonstrated that inductively coupled coils can in...
متن کاملInvestigation of the E- and H-modes of Operation in an Inductively Coupled Rf Discharge
The inductively coupled RF discharge is known to exhibit two modes of operation depending on the level of incident power. Dominant capacitive coupling (E-mode discharge) occurs at low-power level while at high power, dominant inductive coupling (H-mode discharge) is obtained. In this work, we investigate the characteristics of the E-mode and H-mode discharges generated in a planar coil inductiv...
متن کاملReceive Coil for Low-field NMR Scanner Optimized Using Inductive Coupling
The paper describes a receive coil system for low-field NMR scanner intended for cardio measurements. The coil system is based on good qualities of surface coils accommodating them to volume measurements. The active volume of the coil is widened using two inductively coupled resonators. Signal from the coil system is amplified using a highimpedance preamplifier thus no special matching is neces...
