The Iseult Coil, a Hybrid RF Coil for the First Human Brain Images at 11.7 T: Receive Performance Comparison With a Twin Coil at 7 T
The Iseult scanner delivered the first human brain images at 11.7 T. Here, we bring forth the design of the RF coil used for these acquisitions, featuring 8 transmit and 32 receive channels, then evaluate its SNR and g‐factor advantages with respect to a similar coil at 7 T. We attempt a deduction of the SNR dependency...
