Abstract:The decoupled 8 × 2 transceiver array has been shown to achieve a mean B1+ of 11.7 uT with a coefficient of variation of ~11% over the intracranial brain volume for 7‐T MR imaging. However, this array may be thought to give lower signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) and higher g‐factors for parallel imaging compared with a radio frequency (RF) receive‐only coil due to the latter's higher coil count and use of coil overlap to reduce the mutual impedance. Nonetheless, because the transceiver's highly decoupled design (pe… Show more
