Thin-Wire Array based Resonator for Targeted Clinical 1.5T Magnetic Resonance Imaging

We propose a thin-wire array based resonator for 1. 5T-MRI to enhance localized magnetic field, allowing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) enhancement up to fourteen-fold. The design constitutes a 10-mm-thick dielectric sandwiched between two printed wire-arrays. SNR is significantly boosted by leveraging eigenmodes excitation on the resonator.
