This work demonstrates a simple, easy to use, stretchable coil system for small animal MRI at 7T. Phantom images obtained using the stretchable coil were analysed for coil SNR. The SNR of the stretchable coil was compared with SNR of a standard commercial coil. Ex-vivo imaging of a mouse and rat brain was also performed. Current work involves minimizing SNR reduction due to coil stretch. Future work involves developing a 4-channel stretchable coil array for in-vivo imaging of a rat brain.
