Description

Magnetic resonance radio frequency array coil and device and magnetic resonance imaging method
Technical Field
The application relates to a magnetic resonance radio frequency array coil, a magnetic resonance radio frequency array device and a magnetic resonance imaging method.
Background
The magnetic resonance imaging technology has become an important means of modern medical clinical diagnosis, has the advantages of higher tissue density contrast, capability of performing slice imaging in any direction and no ionizing radiation, and is increasingly widely applied.
The radio frequency receiving coil is an important part of an imaging system, is positioned at the forefront end of a receiving chain, plays a significant role in the imaging quality and directly influences the quality of the imaging quality. Meanwhile, the radio frequency coil is easier to develop and optimize than other components in the magnetic resonance system, and therefore, the radio frequency coil is always a hot spot in the field of magnetic resonance imaging. The number of units (channels) of the coil is the main hot spot, but is limited by the number of receiving channels of the system, because the number of channels of the radio frequency coil in the receiving state at the same time cannot be larger than the number of receiving channels of the system; therefore, when the number of coil channels is limited, optimizing the layout of the coil units can also obviously improve the performance of the coil.
When the number of coil units is greater than or equal to 2, the coil unit is called an array coil. When any 2 units are relatively close to each other, mutual influence, namely coupling between coil units, can be generated. For the array coil, the coupling is a negative factor, which has a certain influence on the coil performance, and the larger the coupling is, the larger the negative influence is, so decoupling means is often needed between units to improve the coil performance.
The ways of decoupling can be summarized as 4:
1. partial Overlap (Overlap) decoupling: this is the preferred way of decoupling between 2 cells, but is generally only possible between 2 adjacent cells.
2. Inductance decoupling: 2 units are respectively connected with an inductor in series, and the 2 inductors are mutually overlapped and coupled, so that a reverse coupling can be generated to offset the coupling of the 2 units. This decoupling has the disadvantage that the series inductance reduces the efficiency of the coil unit to some extent, resulting in a reduction of the performance of the individual units and further in a reduction of the performance of the entire coil.
3. Decoupling the capacitor: one or more common capacitors are added among the 2 units, and the reverse coupling can be generated at the end 2 of the capacitor to counteract the coupling of the 2 units. This way the properties of the magnetic resonance radio frequency excitation field are influenced to some extent and in the end some aspects may be influenced.
4. Front-end decoupling: in the radio frequency receiving coil, each unit is followed by a preamplifier, the preamplifier is designed to have a decoupling function, but the decoupling function of the preamplifier is limited, and the effect of decoupling by the preamplifier is not ideal for 2 coil units with stronger original coupling.
In summary, in the other 3 decoupling modes, the partial Overlap (Overlap) decoupling mode is the best mode, and the decoupling effect is good and generally has no negative effect.
In addition, from the development history and direction of the magnetic resonance industry, the number of channels of the system generally adopts the convention of 2 to the integral power, namely, 1 channel is increased to 2 channels, then 4 channels are increased, then 8 channels are increased, then 16 channels are increased, and the like.
Currently, 8 or 16 channel magnetic resonance radio frequency systems are the major popularity of the industry, which should be a mainstream configuration even in the foreseeable future. Based on this, the radio frequency coils with 8 channels are more various, such as 8-channel head coils, 8-channel knee joint coils, 8-channel shoulder joint coils, 8-channel abdomen (trunk) coils, and so on.
In an 8-channel coil, a common unit distribution mode is a mode that 8 units are sequentially arranged from left to right, and as shown in fig. 1, the mode is simple and intuitive. There are often 2 distinct disadvantages that impair its range of application and usefulness.
1. The size of the uniform field area and the size of the target imaging area are limited, the unit shape is often slightly prolate, the length-width ratio is slightly large, and compared with a more square or even circular coil unit, the receiving efficiency of the coil unit is not high, and the performance is limited.
2. The decoupling between the cells is not ideal: although any 2 adjacent cells can be decoupled in a partially overlapping (Overlap) manner, some sub-adjacent cells (such as cell 1 and cell 3) are not well decoupled, and even more sub-adjacent cells (such as cell 1 and cell 4) are not coupled negligibly, but there is no proper decoupling. Resulting in further limited performance of the entire array coil.
Another, and very common, distribution is a 2 x 4 arrangement of cells, as shown in figure 2. The 8 coil units are divided into 2 rows of 4. The arrangement mode is visual, the characteristic that the unit is too long and flat can be avoided to a certain extent, and the efficiency of the unit is improved. But also has its corresponding drawbacks:
1. the decoupling between the cells is still not ideal: because of the close location and the large coupling between diagonally adjacent cells (such as cells 2 and 7), there is still a negative effect that the capacitive or inductive decoupling is often relied on.
2. Seen along the main magnetic field direction, the central part of the whole coil is the superposition junction of 2 groups of coils, and the image signal-to-noise ratio is a relative weak link compared with the peripheral part. The central site is often the most important focal region of concern and importance to the clinician. This snr weakness occurs in the most important areas and is a relatively large design pitot.

Fig. 5 shows a specific embodiment of the magnetic resonance radio frequency array coil of the present application, which is composed of eight coil units, namely, a first coil unit 1, a second coil unit 2, a second coil unit 3, a fourth coil unit 4, a fifth coil unit 5, a sixth coil unit 6, a seventh coil unit 7 and an eighth coil unit 8. The first coil unit 1, the second coil unit 2, the second coil unit 3, the fourth coil unit 4, the fifth coil unit 5 and the sixth coil unit 6 are sequentially arranged along the annular direction, and any two adjacent coil units are partially overlapped (Overlap) to be decoupled, so that a closed loop is formed by the six coil units together.
