Multiple RF coils and multiple gradient coils are used together in a large-volume homogeneous static magnetic field with multiple transmitters and receivers to simultaneously measure MRI images of multiple samples. The RF coils are stored in electromagnetically shielded boxes to remove the electromagnetic coupling among the RF coils. Each gradient coil subsystem is attached to each electromagnetically shielded box to produce intense magnetic field gradients at each sample zone. By using the multiple gradient coils, the electric power to drive the gradient coils can be drastically reduced than that using a single gradient coil system.
