ACTIVE ACOUSTIC CONTROL IN GRADIENT COIL DESIGN FOR MRI

摘要

A method of producing an acoustically quiet coil design comprising first inner and outer surface conductor portions on a first block of material and second inner and outer surface conductor portions on a second block of material and including forming said portions of said each of said inner and outer surface conductor portions to be substantially completely rigid and connecting said inner surface conductor portion of said first block to said inner surface conductor portion of said second block and said outer surface conductor portion of said first block to said outer surface conductor portion of said second block by columns, struts or ties to form a substantially rigid structure.
