Abstract
A phased array RF coil module and an imaging apparatus using the same can receive a magnetic resonance signal generated from a target object at high receive sensitivity and improve a signal to noise ratio. The phased array RF coil module includes at least one first phased array RF coil unit generating a magnetic field having a component horizontal with the surface of a target object and a second phased array RF coil unit formed horizontally with the surface of the target object and generating a magnetic field having a component vertical to the surface of the target object. The imaging apparatus using the phased array RF coil module is a magnetic resonance imaging apparatus.
