Proton imaging with surface coils on a 0.15-T resistive system.
Coil development is fundamental to the optimization of imaging systems at any field; however, it is especially critical for low-field systems where signal strength is limited. Here we demonstrate a type of surface coil design which makes possible the acquisition of high-quality images of the neck and extremities.
