Spring 2017
In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), radio frequency (RF) detectors or “coils” are used to excite and receive signal from the nuclear spins. This thesis focuses on the design and development of RF coils and methods to achieve the best possible image quality at high static magnetic 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. ...
