This paper presents a numerical technique for the design of an RF coil for asymmetric magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. The formulation is based on an inverse approach where the cylindrical surface currents are expressed in terms of a combination of sub-domain basis functions: triangular and
## Abstract The issues related to the simulation of specific absorption rate (SAR) in a high frequency magnetic resonance coil are discussed in this work. Using simulation results, it is shown that the effect of the nonimaging modes on SAR can be substantial and thus must be taken into account. Als
## Abstract Radiofrequency (RF) coils for use in MRI can have a significant effect on both the signalβtoβnoiseβratio of MR images and the specific absorption rate inside the biological sample. In the past, prototypes were constructed and tested to investigate the performance of the RF coils and oft
