Popis: For the first time a double turn breast coil has been described which can be used for 1 H imaging, 1 H spectroscopy and 31 P spectroscopy. The paper describes basic technical features of the coil, coil design, B 1 field/excitation field distribution for 1 H and 31 P, sensitivity, and feasibility for 31 P spectroscopic in vivo studies. The main advantage of the double frequency tuneable coil is that 1 H imaging for tumor localization and 31 P spectroscopy for response control can be done without an additional repositioning of the patient.
