To operate a MRI system within the best conditions of reproducibility, Quality Assurance (QA) is mandatory to prevent defects and to detect abnormalities in subparts of the system. When using third-party or home-made coils, it is particularly important to guaranty stability of transmit and receive coil paths. For this purpose, we implemented a fast and user-friendly integrated assessment and follow-up to prevent or quickly detect failures.
