An eight-channel RF transceive head coil with automatic
tuning and matching was implemented and evaluated at 7T.
The electrically controlled feedback system rapidly
manipulates the frequency tune and impedance match and
is compatible with any existing MRI system. The results
show the feasibility of the automated system to tune and
match transmit and/or receive elements along with
multi-channel RF coils.
