Abstract

The invention discloses a gradient coil with a parallel structure, which comprises three sets of coils and two power amplifiers, each set of coil comprises two groups of main coils with a parallel structure and two groups of shielding coils with a parallel structure, one group of main coils with a parallel structure and one group of shielding coils with a parallel structure are driven by one channel of one power amplifier, and the other group of the main coil of the parallel structure and the shielding coil of the parallel structure are driven by one channel of the other power amplifier. The gradient coil provided by the invention adopts a parallel structure, has the advantage of low hot-spot temperature, can reduce the design and manufacturing difficulty of a cooling pipeline, has higher gradient linearity, and can improve the image quality; in addition, two conventional power amplifiers are adopted to drive the coil at the same time, the performance requirement for a driving power supply is lowered, the reliability of the magnetic resonance imaging system is improved, and the cost of the system is lowered.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to the field of magnetic resonance imaging, and more particularly to a gradient coil of a parallel structure. Background technique [0002] With the development of magnetic resonance imaging technology, the pursuit of higher image resolution and faster scanning speed, this is a higher requirement for the performance of the gradient coil. [0003] High performance gradient coils can produce higher gradient strength and have a faster switching rate. The gradient strength can be increased by increasing the number of turns of the coil or increase the coil current, and the faster switching rate requires a lower inductor. [0004] However, due to the limitation of spatial size, only a plurality of turns can be arranged in a limited space. Moreover, the increase in turns will result in an increase in inductance, which puts higher requirements for power amplifiers. Increasing the current of the coil will bring more serious fever proble...
