X-nuclei surface Coils

Model MN6, MN10 or MN20 X-nuclei surface coils:

• Standard coil sizes: 6, 10 and 20cm diameters in either plastic or flexible foam housings
• Nuclei: ³¹P, ¹⁹F, ²³Na, ¹³C, ³He, ⁷Li, ¹²⁹Xe
• All coils compatible with ¹H body coil imaging
• Available for 1.5T, 3.0T and 7.0T systems

Example research applications

• 6 cm ³¹P RF coil optimised for spectroscopy of the calf muscle
• 10 cm ¹³C RF coil for spectroscopy of the heart. Sensitive volume avoids signal from the diaphragm giving very high quality cardiac spectra
• 20 cm ²³Na surface coils for applications in the chest and abdomen

Interchangeable reference samples: the 6 and 10 cm coils are fitted with an integrated reference sample for chemical reference, calibration and quantification.

Available for 3.0 T MR systems from all system manufacturers: Philips (Achieva and Ingenia), Siemens (Trio, Verio, Skyra and Prisma) and GE (HDx and MR750).
