MRI coil

An MRI coil is a specialized device used in magnetic resonance imaging to send and receive radiofrequency signals. These coils are placed around or inside the body part being examined to improve the quality of the images. They act like antennas, capturing signals from the body's tissues when exposed to a magnetic field and radio waves. Different coils are designed for various body parts, helping to produce clear, detailed images for diagnosis. Essentially, an MRI coil enhances the MRI machine's ability to see inside the body accurately and efficiently.
