Synopsis

Recent advancements in MRI coil design have been made towards designing and efficiently manufacturing tailor-made MRI receive arrays utilizing a multitude of different manufacturing techniques. However, the coils in these arrays must be decoupled geometrically to prevent detuning of the individual channels. This work evaluates Twisted Pair and Microstrip based receiver coils and compares their performance to Coaxial and traditional coils in terms of SNR and decoupling.
