Abstract:
A radio-frequency (RF) coil apparatus for magnetic resonance (MR) systems ( 100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600, 700, 900, 1000 ), the RF coil including a base ( 102, 502, 702, 902, 1002 ) having opposed sides ( 121 ), a surface ( 124 ) to support an object of interest (OOI) for scanning, and fasteners ( 127 ) situated at the opposed sides; a positioner ( 104, 304 A,  304 B,  504, 604, 704, 1004 ) configured to be releasably attached to the base and having a body ( 130 ) extending between opposed ends and fasteners ( 134 ,) situated at the opposed ends of the body, the body configured to form an arch between the opposed ends; and an upper section ( 106, 606, 706, 906, 1006 ) having at least one RF coil array ( 142 ) for acquiring induced MR signals, the upper section configured to be positioned over the positioner.

Claim (Index 16):
A process of configuring a radio-frequency (RF) coil for scanning an object of interest (OOI), the process comprising acts of:\n positioning the OOI upon a support surface of a base, the base having opposed sides and fasteners situated on each of the opposed sides; aligning a positioner with the OOI, the positioner having an arched body extending between opposed ends and fasteners situated at the opposed ends of the body; coupling the positioner to the base by attaching the fasteners of the positioner to adjacent corresponding fasteners of the base; and guiding, by the positioner, an upper section into a desired position relative to the OOI, the upper section having at least one RF coil array for acquiring induced MR signals, the upper section configured to slide over the positioner.
