Abstract

The invention discloses a high-field MRI birdcage coil. The high-field MRI birdcage coil comprises two metal rings with the same structures, wherein the metal rings are respectively located at the upper end and the lower end; the two metal rings are connected with each other via a plurality of cylindrical channels made of a metal material in a vertical direction; the cylindrical channels are used for equally dividing the metal ring at the upper end and the metal ring at the lower end into a plurality of parts; each cylindrical channel is divided into an upper part and a lower part from the middle; the upper and lower parts of each cylindrical channel are electrically connected with each other via a capacitor device. The high-field MRI birdcage coil also comprises an outer metal cover; the outer metal cover is covered on the outer side of the metal rings and the cylindrical channels, has a shielding effect and is formed by a radio frequency coil wound to be cylindrical. The high-field MRI birdcage coil is good in parameter performance; an eight-channel birdcage coil is provided for a high-field (7T) magnetic resonance imaging system; the resolution ratio of generated images is improved; the requirements on imaging of a magnetic resonance technique at present can be met.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of magnetic resonance, and in particular relates to a high-field MRI birdcage coil. Background technique [0002] The demand for magnetic resonance technology in the medical field gave birth to the birdcage coil. With the continuous advancement of magnetic resonance imaging technology, the market size of birdcage coils and related dielectric materials has risen sharply. Birdcage coils have been widely used in medicine, biomedicine and other fields. However, the birdcage coil in the prior art has the disadvantage of low spatial resolution, resulting in low resolution of the generated image. With the further improvement of the operating frequency of the birdcage coil, the spatial resolution of the imaging and the increase of the signal-to-noise ratio of the image have significantly improved the magnetic resonance imaging technology. [0003] Birdcage coils are widely used in medicine, such as checking the l...
