ABSTRACT:
A NMR abdominal coil array includes four critically overlapped resonant loops fixed upon a generally "C-shaped" (curved) coil form with an anterior housing pivotally connected and supported by a posterior form. Three of the loops are fixed to an anterior housing which is curved from a generally horizontal upper end to a generally vertical lower end, and pivotally connected to a generally vertically oriented flange forming the upper end of the posterior housing. This upper end of the posterior housing contains the remaining resonant loop. The anterior housing is pivotally connected to the posterior housing about a single horizontal axis, permitting both slight adjustment for patient size, and substantial movement for entry and exit of a patient.
