ABSTRACT:
An RF coil for NMR experiments having a conductive path for flowing a field-cancelling current to isolate magnetically the RF coil from its environment. NMR data, particularly MRI data from a human subject, is collected with the receiver coil magnetically shielded to avoid loss of the received signal energy to the environment.
