Abstract
Embodiments relate to MRI RF multi-tune coil elements, arrays, and MRI systems comprising such elements. One example embodiment comprises: a LC coil comprising one or more matching points; and two or more matching branches, each of which connected to the LC coil at matching point of the one or more matching points that is associated with that matching branch, wherein each matching branch comprises an associated set of one or more RF traps configured to block each frequency of two or more frequencies other than a frequency associated with that matching branch, and wherein each matching branch is configured to match to an associated predetermined impedance at the frequency associated with that matching branch.
