内容記述 | We proposed and developed a new microstrip transmission line radiofrequency (RF) coil for a positron emission tomography (PET) insert for MRI, which has low electrical interactions with PET shield boxes. We performed imaging experiments using a single-channel and a four-channel proposed RF coils for proof-of-concept. Methods: A conventional microstrip coil consists of a microstrip conductor, a ground conductor, and a dielectric between the two conductors. We proposed a microstrip coil for the PET insert that replaced the conventional single-layer ground conductor with the RF shield of the PET insert. A dielectric material, which could otherwise attenuate gamma photons radiated from the PET imaging tracer, was not used. As proof-of-concept, we compared conventional and the proposed single-channel coils. To study multichannel performance, we further developed a four-channel proposed RF coil. Since the MRI system had a single-channel transmission port, an interfacing four-way RF power division circuit was designed. The coils were implemented as both RF transmitters and receivers in a cylindrical frame of diameter 150 mm. Coil bench performances were tested with a network analyzer (Rohde & Schwarz, Germany), and a homogeneous phantom study was conducted for gradient echo imaging and RF eld (B1) mapping in a 3T clinical system (Verio, Siemens, Erlangen, Germany). Results: For all coils, the power reflection coefficient was below −30 dB, and the transmission coefficients in the four-channel configuration were near or below −20 dB. The comparative single-channel coil study showed good similarity between the conventional and proposed coils. The gradient echo image of the four- channel coil showed expected flashing image intensity near the coils and no phase distortion was visible. Transmit B1 field map resembled the image performance. comparative single-channel coil study showed good similarity between the conventional and proposed coils.
