ABSTRACT:
A local coil for use with an MRI system to acquire images of a patient's legs includes a vertically disposed central coil positioned between the legs, and a pair of horizontally disposed flange coils positioned above and below the legs. In one embodiment of the central coil is a phased array of two coils, and the four coils are connected to the respective inputs of a four channel receiver, and in a second embodiment, the signals from the three coils are combined before application to the input of a single-channel receiver.
