The target field method of designing gradient coils is extended to the case where the gradient producing currents lie on cylinders of a general orientation with respect to the polarizing magnetic field. This provides a general approach for designing coils that require unusual sample geometries such

An application of the target field method to the design of shielded biplanar gradient coils for magnetic resonance imaging electromagnets is presented. Some specific cases are studied, and optimized geometries are proposed for the axial and transverse gradient coils that eliminate the third- and min
