Abstract: | The paper describes a new type of transverse magnetic field gradient coil for applications in MRI and MRS. It uses full circle
current paths rather than current arcs and has a particularly simple unit construction of symmetri form. It features a large
volume of uniform transverse field gradient, high efficiency and low inductance for rapid switching. A prototype coil has
been constructed and evaluated to check computer simulations. Two smaller sets have subsequently been made for NMR microscopy.
This coil design may be used for all sizes. |
