Synopsis

Keywords: High-Field MRI, Multimodal

Recently, intensive research has been conducted on coaxial‐transmission‐line (CTL) RF coils for nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) at frequency ranging from high field to ultra-high field. The flexibility of CTL is to some extent required to image dynamic anatomy of the human body. Analysis on the CTL coils based on transmission line theory has revealed multimode operating frequency. Consequently, CTL coils can be useful to implement dual-nuclear RF coil resonator designed for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) and Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS). In this abstract, we design a dual-band CTL with independent tuning capabilities.
