Our study proposes 19-Channel hybrid array system for Foot/Ankle imaging.We were able to generate B1+ fields that could cover the areas of interest which are Heel,Ankle,Metatarsal region of the foot.
Fig.1. Simulation model showing the 19-channel hybrid array system a)Foot/Ankle phantom b)3D view of the phantom with RF coil system c) Front View of the system d) Side view of the system e) Back view of the system f) Top view of the system.
Fig.2. B1+ field distribution along the transverse plane of the phantom. The transverse plane propagates from lower dimensions to higher dimensions. B) B1+ field distribution along the sagittal plane of the phantom at the center.
