An Antenna-Theory Method for Modeling High-Frequency RF Coils: A Segmented Birdcage Example
We suggest that center-fed dipole antenna analytics can be employed in the optimized design of high-frequency MRI RF coil applications. The method is illustrated in the design of a single-segmented birdcage model and a short multisegmented birdcage model. As a byproduct, it is shown that for a long...
