The 2nd prototype automatic RF coil has been built with
some major upgrades after we presented the feasibility
of applying automatic tuning and matching in a
multi-channel transceive RF coil at 7T in the last
meeting. The scientific and clinical utility of
multi-channel systems that enable parallel MR imaging
will not be fully realized without the proposed
automatic frequency tuning and impedance matching
technology at ultra-high fields.
