Coaxial Magnetic Resonance Tomograph
The invention proposes to use the travelling wave concept, but to couple high frequency waves only into an object to be investigated. However, in contrast to the prior art, the high frequency device enables to couple in RF waves targeted into a particular section of interest of the object. This offers the advantage that the excluded parts are not unnecessarily exposed to the RF waves and do not contribute to RF expo-sure limit calculations, which allows for a coupling in of a larger dose of the RF energy at a location where it is required. The hardware MRI device has a coaxial arrangement of tubular elements.
