Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for radio frequency (RF) coils for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems. In one embodiment, an RF coil configured for an MRI system comprises a plurality of RF coil conductors, each RF coil conductor comprising a base side with two arms extending therefrom. In this way, the RF coil may efficiently generate magnetic fields with improved channel isolation while producing fewer annefact artifacts.
