Traditionally, resonant coils are used for MR signal
detection. In this work we present a novel approach for
detecting MR signals by combining a non-resonant grid
structure with resonant coil elements that are
inductively coupled to each segment of the grid.
S-Parameters were measured and imaging experiments were
performed to evaluate coupling and imaging performance
in phantoms.
