Abstract

A novel gradient coil design scheme was proposed for use in planar MRI systems. Unlike conventional scheme in a limited magnet pole-polespace which usually applies unshielded design, the novel strategy integrated a set of actively-shielded gradient coils in only four layers in thepole-pole space with the utilization of the system peripheral sections. The design largely improved the shielding eff ect of the gradient coils andmeanwhile left adequate space for the patients and installation of cooling device. The design scheme did not signifi cantly increase the systemmanufacturing complexity either.
