High-Impedance Wireless Coax Coil for Enhanced Wearable MRI Applications

Key Points

Over 50% improvement in signal-to-noise ratio enhances imaging quality for knee examinations, transforming assessment capabilities.
The high-impedance wireless coil maintains stable resonant frequency even when bent or stretched, ensuring reliable performance in dynamic conditions.
Designed specifically to address anatomical complexities, this coil contributes to greater comfort and reduces equipment bulk for patients.
Ideal for applications in curved areas, it opens up new possibilities for efficient and effective wearable MRI technology.

Abstract

Motivation: Conventional MRI coils are bulky and rigid, limiting comfort and signal in curved areas, creating demand for flexible, wireless alternatives. Goal(s): Enhance signal acquisition in anatomically complex regions while improving patient comfort and reducing design complexity and cost. Approach: We designed a high-impedance wireless coil to optimize signal enhancement in anatomically flexed regions. Results: We developed a high-impedance wireless coaxial array with stable resonant frequency under bending, stretching, achieving over 50% SNR improvement in knee imaging and high SNR in areas like hands and fingers. Impact: This design is ideal for imaging small, curved body parts, improving comfort and efficiency in wearable MRI.
