Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a very important non-invasive modality for the diagnosis of knee anatomy and pathology. The use of 7 Tesla systems for knee imaging can provide higher signal-to-noise ratios (SNR) than lower field systems. In this work, a novel 8-channel transceive open knee coil for dynamic musculoskeletal (MSK) MR imaging of the knee is simulated and constructed. The open design concept will facilitate the diagnostic and functional assessment of knee injuries and pathology, and allow for imaging of a moving knee.
