Spring 2015
Radiofrequency (RF) coils are a substantial part of Magnetic Resonance Imaging System. Microstrip transmission line (MTL) coils are widely used as they have a low coupling between array elements and negligible radiation loss. Matching and tuning capacitors are usually soldered to MTL coils in...

Efficient data acquisition, transmission and post-processing for quality spiral Magnetic Resonance Imaging
DownloadFall 2011
Spiral Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has traditionally presented more technical and computational challenges compared to its traditional Cartesian counterpart, notably a susceptibility to blurring artifacts, especially when scan parameters are non-optimal, and a heavier computational load both...

Preamplifier Noise Figure Measurement and Radio Frequency Field Optimization in High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging
DownloadFall 2013
High field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an area of research interest due to the associated improvement in image quality possible. This improvement comes at a cost. Hardware design becomes more complex in order to overcome technical challenges at these higher field strengths....

Strategies for Maximizing Signal to Noise in Decoupled Receive Coil Arrays for Magnetic Resonance Imaging
DownloadFall 2013
Designing radio frequency coil arrays for optimal Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) has been a wide area of interest for many years. The optimum coil type for high density arrays and the mitigation of coupling between elements in arrays are significant problems addressed in this thesis. ...

Spring 2017
Quantitative Magnetic Resonance Imaging (qMRI) is occupying an increasingly prominent role in the study of the brain, by virtue of its sensitivity to physiological and anatomical changes. However, because qMRI techniques tend to suffer from long scan durations and/or post-processing times, as...
