Phased array coils

Phased array coils are advanced MRI antennas made up of multiple smaller coil elements working together. They can detect signals from different parts of the body simultaneously, allowing for clearer images with higher resolution and faster scanning times. This configuration improves the ability to visualize complex structures and reduces artifacts. By electronically combining data from each coil element, phased array coils provide flexible, detailed imaging suitable for various clinical applications, enhancing diagnostic accuracy without increasing scan discomfort.
