An MRI system receive coil arrangementfor use with a main MRI scanner arrangement, the receive coil arrangementincluding support structure and at least one receives coilcarried on the support structure. The support structureincludes a receive coil housing portionwhich defines a channel portionwhich houses at least a portion of the at least one receive coil. The channel having a mouthfor allowing the introduction of said at least a portion of the at least one receive coilthrough the mouthand into the channeland a closing portionmoveable between a first position in which the mouthof the channel portion is open for allowing introduction of the at least a portion of the at least one receive coilinto the channel portionand a second, closing, position in which the mouthof the channel is blocked by the closing portion

MRI systems and receive coil arrangements

An MRI system receive coil arrangementfor use with a main MRI scanner arrangement. The arrangement includes at least one primary receive coilhaving a first impedance at a predetermined frequency and a first size defined by a cross-sectional area bounded by the primary receive coil and at least one auxiliary receive coilhaving a second impedance at said predetermined frequency and a second size defined by a cross-sectional area bounded by the auxiliary receive coil wherein the first impedance is lower than the second impedance and the first size is larger than the second size.

An MRI system RF transmit antenna arrangementincluding an antennaincluding a length of coaxial cablewith an electrically conductive coreand an electrically conductive outer shieldthrough which the core runs, with the core having a feed pointarranged for electrical connection to an RF source and at least one breakbeing provided in the electrically conductive outer shield partway along the length of coaxial cable so as to divide the electrically conductive outer shieldinto at least two axially spaced shield portions such that at least one of the shield portions acts as a radiating element when an RF source is connected to the feed point
