Preliminary design of the Magnetic Coils for J-PET-MRI

The aim of this study was to find an optimum design, simulation and test a static and gradients coils for MRI which will give in the future a unique possibility for designing a J-PET [1–3] device combined with MRI system [4], where a simultaneous PET and MRI is providing great advantages and important diagnostic information about soft tissues and physiological functions throughout the body. The coils are extremely important components of MRI equipment. In this study, all simulations were conducted by using finite element method with consideration that our simulation results should be possible to be translated into real patterns in the nearest future with considering all technical limitations of the manufacturing process. As well as the comparison of theoretical results with simulations, flux maps and animations for the coils.
