## Abstract A study was performed to determine whether an implanted, inductively coupled nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging spine coil could provide a significant gain in signalβtoβnoise ratio (SNR) on images of the spinal cord relative to the SNR of optimized surface coils. Implanted coils w
A strategy for the design of surface coils for the imaging of extended superficial planar anatomic structures including skin and subcutaneous fat is presented. The central concept is to create an array of closely spaced coplanar radiofrequency current filaments parallel to BO, the polarizing field,
The use of multiple pulse line narrowing for NMR imaging of solids is hampered because large magnetic field gradients can place some spins sufficiently far from resonance so that the local line narrowing effkiency is reduced. We propose that this interference can be modeled as a phase error of the r
A method for in-plane imaging of large objects as compared to the RF coil is proposed based on the use of a single specially designed surface coil, without using B 0 gradients. A constant B 1 gradient was generated along the main axis of a ladder-shaped coil, and RF-encoding along the direction of t
