ABSTRACT:
A quadrature detection MRI radio frequency coil includes plural axially-extending conductive legs. At least two of the legs include breaks in conductivity at their mid-point with circumferentially extending inner-bridge conductors connected thereacross to which RF input/output feed connections are conveniently made so as to achieve a center fed coil structure, open at both ends. Other axially-extending legs may also include conductive breaks with capacitive coupling thereacross and circumferentially extending outer-bridges between the outer or distal ends of the legs may also include breaks in conductivity with capacitive coupling thereacross.
