Novel Gradient Coils
Hidalgo-Tobon, Silvia
This work describes three new developments in the design and use of gradient coils in MRI. A novel gradient coil, consisting of folded loop current path has been developed. In this design, the current return paths for the inner coil are folded over onto the outer screening coil and both coils have the same length. This sort of design will potentially allow more efficient short coils with better screening to be designed. Mathematical expression...
