MAGNETIC RESONANCE SYSTEM AND METHOD THEREOF

摘要

A multi-channel coil assembly capable of being configured to operate in a first mode and a second mode is provided. The multi-channel coil assembly includes a plurality of coil elements and a plurality of mode switches. Each of the plurality of mode switches is switchably coupled to at least two of the coil elements. In the first mode, at least one of the mode switches is uncoupled to the coil elements forming a hyperthermia array. The hyperthermia array is configured to transmit first radio frequency signals in response to multiple first input signals supplied thereto. In the second mode, at least one of the mode switches is coupled to the coil elements forming a magnetic resonance (MR) array. The MR array is configured to transmit or receive second radio frequency signals in response to multiple second input signals supplied thereto.
