A magnetic field probe comprises a sample that exhibits magnetic resonance at an operating frequency, an electrically conductive structure surrounding the sample for receiving a magnetic resonance signal therefrom, and a solid jacket encasing the sample and the conductive structure. The jacket is made of a hardened two-component epoxy system containing a paramagnetic dopant dissolved therein, with the concentration of the dopant being chosen such that the jacket has a magnetic susceptibility that is substantially identical to the magnetic susceptibility of the conductive structure.

Magnetic field probe and method for manufacturing the same

A coil assembly for magnetic resonance imaging comprises a sheet () of flexible and stretchable dielectric material and at least one electrically conducting coil () for receiving and/or emitting a radio frequency signal. The coil is attached to and extends along a face of the flexible sheet. At least part of the coil is made of a ribbon shaped braided conductor () that is arranged in substantially flat contact with the face.
