Abstract :
The present work describes the realization of a tube-shaped receive coil set for 2D imaging, which provides sensitivity profiles with high homogeneity. The idea is to resemble a sinusoidal current distribution, which is known to generate an ideal field distribution. To conclude from a magnetic field generated by an electromagnetic coil to it´s receive properties, the law of reciprocity is applied. Good agreement with the simulation is obtained by first magnetic field measurements.
