An array coil to perform in vivo Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy was developed to study the intestinal wall. It consisted of two surface rectangular-shaped coils mounted on cylindrical structure forming an orthogonal assembly. Since this design is intended to generate images and spectra, each element was tuned to a different resonant frequency: a) imaging: 200 MHz (¹H) and b) spectroscopy: 81 MHz ([sup 31]P). However, at this stage of the research, imaging experiments were only conducted on a Bruker 4.7 Tesla animal system. High-resolution images were obtained from a saline filled phantom and from the intestinal wall of a fully anaesthetised rabbit. The dual frequency coil array can be used to study the pathophysiology of intestinal ischemia. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
