ABSTRACT:
A magnetic resonance imaging apparatus (10) includes a primary magnet assembly for generating a temporarily constant magnetic field through an examination region (20), a gradient coil assembly for inducing magnetic field gradients across the examination region (20), and a radio frequency coil for receiving resonance signals from the examination region. The gradient coil assembly includes a coil carrying member (22) carrying first (44) and second (46) spaced apart gradient coil portions which are physically separated from each other on the coil carrying member to define at least one azimuthally directed gap (48, 50, 52, 54) extending along the coil carrying member between said first and second gradient coil portions. The first and second coil portions are disposed towards opposite top and bottom sides of the examination region and have internal windings therein for generating gradient magnetic field components along at least two mutually orthogonal axes (X, Y) in the examination region.
