International Classification:
G01V 3/00
US Classification:
324322, 324318
Abstract:
An RF coil construction for MRI is disclosed. The construction includes a device for cryogenically cooling receiver coils, at least two coil elements being cryogenically cooled by the device and forming an array. Each coil element includes at least two capacitors for tuning and matching the coil element. The construction also includes a circuit connected to each coil element for decoupling the coil element from the transmitter coil(s), and also for decoupling among coil elements.
