Abstract
Disclosed herein are a magnetic-field-generating coil system, an imaging system having the magnetic-field-generating coil system, and a method for operating the imaging system. The method for operating an imaging system includes generating multiple Linear Gradient Fields (LGFs) in respective axial directions by controlling coil currents, and acquiring MRI information or Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) information about an object while moving the multiple LGFs by varying the coil currents.
