A new transverse gradient coil assembly of restricted length is presented. The coil is symmetric, has the advantage of simplicity, generates a remarkably large volume of uniform transverse gradient field, features very low inductance, and can therefore be suitable for applications requiring fast switched gradients. A prototype coil has been constructed to check computer simulations and to compare measured parameters of the system with those expected. Coils of this type may be used for MRI of the human head, and of animals, and for NMR microimaging.
本文介绍了一种新型的长度受限的横向梯度线圈组件。该线圈具有对称性,结构简单,能产生相当大体积的均匀横向梯度场,电感极低,因此适用于需要快速切换梯度的应用。已制作了一个原型线圈来验证计算机模拟结果,并将系统的测量参数与预期参数进行比较。这种类型的线圈可用于人体头部和动物的磁共振成像以及核磁共振显微成像。
