Patent ID: 10838025

Abstract:
A radio-frequency system for a magnetic resonance apparatus has a local coil, a body coil, and an impedance adjusting shield. The body coil is wirelessly power-coupled with the local coil such that the body coil serves as a transmitting coil for radio-frequency signals and the local coil serves as a receiving coil for magnetic resonance signals. The local coil is disposed in an internal cavity of the impedance adjusting shield. An impedance of the local coil is adjusted by the impedance adjusting shield so as to match the impedance of the local coil and the body coil. The impedance adjusting shield has a frequency modulation element that adjusts the resonance frequency of the local coil. The body coil couples power to the local coil, and the impedance adjusting shield effectively reduces energy transmission efficiency loss caused by reflection, thereby improving energy transmission efficiency.
