ABSTRACT:
A radio frequency coil for nuclear magnetic resonance imaging comprises two annular conductors which are coaxially disposed at opposite ends of a prescribed axis and at least one pair of longitudinal conductor groups which are symmetrically disposed in parallel to the prescribed axis and extend longitudinally from one annular conductor to the other. Each longitudinal conductor group comprises a plurality of longitudinally-extending electrical conductors whose ends are secured and electrically connected to the annular conductors. The longitudinal conductors are preferably in the form of electrically conducting wires, tubes, or plates. The annular conductors can be in the form of one-piece rings or in the form of one or more pairs of arcuate plates which are electrically connected with one another and disposed about the prescribed axis in the form of a ring. Electrically conducting guard rings which are electrically insulated form the inner surface of the coil may be coaxially disposed inside the annular conductors.
