Novel Gradient Transparent RF Shielding Technologies for Integrated PET/MR

Daniel Truhn¹, Fabian Kiessling¹, Volkmar Schulz^1,2

We demonstrate that a multiple shell setup exhibits favourable advantages over a single shell shielding enclosure in the context of simultaneous PET/MR imaging. It is shown that effects on the MR gradient fields can be reduced without compromising the shielding at high frequencies.
