发明名称 Hybrid birdcage-TEM radio frequency (RF) coil for multinuclear MRI/MRS
摘要 A radio frequency (RF) coil for a magnetic resonance imaging system includes a plurality of rungs disposed around a volume and a first end ring connected to a first end of the plurality of rungs. The first end ring has a first plurality of birdcage mode tuning capacitors and a first plurality of RF traps. The RF coil also includes a second end ring connected to a second end of the plurality of rungs. The second end ring has a second plurality of birdcage mode tuning capacitors and a second plurality of RF traps. An RF shield is disposed around the plurality of rungs, the first end ring and the second end ring. The RF coil also includes a plurality of transverse electromagnetic (TEM) mode tuning capacitors, where each TEM mode tuning capacitor coupled to one of the plurality of rungs. An RF trap is connected to each of the plurality of TEM mode tuning capacitors.
