PURPOSE: Conventional MRI coils offer suboptimal parallel imaging performance for young children. Our goal was to enhance imaging acceleration by dedicated, flexible high-density coil design for pediatric patients at 3T.
METHODS: We design, construct, and evaluate a highly flexible small loop array. Key design notes include full-wave simulation and analysis of the dual-turn loop, miniature feedboard allocation at the loop center, and cable management. Phantom experiments and adult and pediatric volunteer case studies were conducted to evaluate the small loop array imaging performance compared to commercial reference coils.
RESULTS: Dual-turn loop configuration forms higher preamp decoupling impedance than the same size single-turn, supporting a flexible form factor that requires a wide range of critical overlap. Both phantom and in-vivo studies demonstrate superior parallel imaging performance or high spatial resolution imaging using the small loop, compared to commercial reference coils.
CONCLUSION: A dedicated high-density coil array with a minimum inter-component interference layout design allows a flexible form factor and higher imaging accelerations. Phantom and in-vivo volunteer case studies demonstrate promising results in improving efficiency for pediatric patients in routine clinical imaging procedures.
