Effect, plays the effect receiving magnetic resonance signal again, is one of core component of magnetic resonance system.Microstrip line is because make letter
Single, low cost, also there is extensive utilization in magnetic resonance imaging arts.Conventional micro-strip coil is in a medium substrate (such as
Politef or air) upper and lower surface enclose two thin metal layers respectively, its face width great thing earth plate,
Another side width is less, and as center conductor, it utilizes microstrip line or coaxial line probe to patch, in conductor patch with connect
Radio frequency electromagnetic field has been encouraged between floor.For the width of earth plate and center conductor, typically require the width of earth plate remote
Width more than center conductor.
Traditional can be used for the transmitting of radiofrequency signal and reception in magnetic resonance based on the radio-frequency coil of microstrip line, coil
Two ends are respectively arranged with electric capacity, and for adjusting the resonant frequency of coil, and center conductor is then a complete copper cash, not
Electric capacity is located on center conductor.Traditional microstrip line adopt single-ended unbalanced driving, one end of microstrip line as drive end,
On this drive end, the earth plate of microstrip line, as zero potential point, accesses the earth terminal of driver, the center conductor of microstrip line
Drive point as potential, access the signal end of driver.When using as receiving coil, microstrip line is linearly, and its magnetic field is only
Only cover the spatial dimension above center conductor, and the width that magnetic field covers is similar with the width of center conductor, this makes
The area that it can be imaged is less.If being used for being imaged traditional microstrip line, due to by actual spendable coil dimension
Limit, earth plate can be similar with the width of the object to be imaged, and it is earth plate width that the width of center conductor is much smaller than, at this
The effective covering to the object to be imaged cannot be realized in the case of kind.
Content of the invention
In view of this, the present invention provides a kind of balance drive formula magnetic resonance radio frequency coil based on microstrip line, by changing
The structure of microstrip line and type of drive, extend the scope of its magnetic field covering, and then increase imageable area.
The described balance drive formula magnetic resonance radio frequency coil based on microstrip line, including single microstrip line, described microstrip line
Including medium substrate, earth plate and center conductor, described earth plate is arranged at the back side of medium substrate, and center conductor is arranged at Jie
The front of matter substrate；Described medium substrate, earth plate and center conductor are the symmetrical loop configuration with opening, thus institute
The microstrip line being formed also is the symmetrical annular with opening；
One electric capacity is respectively set between the center conductor and earth plate of described microstrip line opening both sides；Simultaneously described
It is located at the intermediate point of center conductor, aforementioned four electric capacity after two electric capacity, and two capacitances in series are also equipped with center conductor
Capacitance identical；Described radio-frequency coil is connected with subsequent driver by the way of the balance drive of center.
Described microstrip line is annulus, the annular of square ring or other symmetrically shape.
The type of drive of described radio-frequency coil is：With two electric capacity on center conductor for driving point, between two electric capacity
Point be zero potential point, access driver earth terminal；In two electric capacity, another end points of any one electric capacity drives for potential
Dynamic point, accesses the signal end of driver.
Beneficial effect：
The present invention passes through to change the structure of radio-frequency coil based on microstrip line and type of drive, extends the model of its magnetic field covering
Enclose, and then increase imageable area.It is specially：In structure, the radio-frequency coil based on microstrip line is a loop configuration, enters
And extend the magnetic field area coverage of microstrip line coil so as to magnetic field covers not being confined to the space above center conductor,
But expand to the superjacent air space of the whole annular of center conductor composition；In type of drive, using the side of center balance drive
Formula is connected with follow-up receptor.
