A radio frequency (RF) coil assembly for a magnetic resonance (MR) system is provided. The RF coil assembly includes one or more modules. A module of the one or more modules includes one or more RF coils, each RF coil including a coil loop that includes a wire conductor, the wire conductor formed into the coil loop. Each RF coil also includes a coupling electronics portion coupled with the coil loop. The module further includes an outlet coupled with coupling electronics portions of the one or more RF coils. The RF coil assembly further includes a wiring harness including module interfacing cables each configured to be electrically coupled with the outlet.

Modular radio-frequency coil assemblies of a magnetic resonance system

Various methods and systems are provided for a flexible, lightweight, and low-cost radio frequency (RF) trap for use in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. In one example, a radio frequency (RF) trap assembly for use in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system is provided, comprising a twinax wire assembly having a plurality of looped portions, each ones of the plurality of looped portions tangentially in contact with a shielded cable, and at least one support structure for substantially maintaining the shape of the plurality of looped portions, the support structure surrounding a portion of the shielded cable, wherein the twinax wire assembly is tuned to a frequency suitable for increasing the impedance of the shielded cable.
