Apparatus, process and a volume strip array can be provided, e.g., for use in connection with magnetic resonance imaging ("MRI"). The apparatus includes an arrangement adapted to transmit a signal to generate a magnetic field in a particular mode, and to receive a signal in response to the generated field in another mode. In particular, a plurality of parallel conductor strips are provided in a cylindrical configuration. The conductor strips are each adapted to receive current to generate a magnetic field. In addition, a cylindrical conductive shield can be provided which can include or allow the placement of the conductive strip. A plurality of ports may also be used, each of the ports interconnecting the conductive shield and at least one of the conductor strips. A control system may also be provided to tailor the properties of the conductive strips for particular applications.
