Theoretical and experimental evaluation of detached endcaps for 3 T birdcage coils.

The use of detached endcaps for 3 T birdcage coils was investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Finite difference time domain analysis, along with workbench and MRI techniques, were used to map the radiofrequency (RF) B(1) distribution along the coil axis with and without an endcap. Witho...
