To date, MRI is based on linear field gradients
generated by dedicated X, Y and Z coils. Here,
multi-slice Dynamic Multi-Coil Technique (DYNAMITE) MRI
is presented in which all field gradients are provided
by MC field modeling. The obtained image fidelity is
identical to conventional MRI based on dedicated
gradient coils. Comparable image quality is a milestone
towards the establishment of purely MC-based MRI
systems. With the gains of DYNAMITE shimming in
performance and efficiency, the MC technology has the
potential to replace spherical harmonic coil systems for
specific applications.
