Innovative techniques in the RF excitation hardware
•
Uniform RF distribution in all body regions
TrueForm excitation uses amplitude and phase transmission settings optimized for
dedicated body regions. Feeding the 2 ports of the integrated body coil with an opti-
mized weighting yields a homogeneous B1 distribution
