Abstract

A new transverse gradient coil assembly of restricted length is presented. The coil is symmetric, has the advantage of simplicity, generates a remarkably large volume of uniform transverse gradient field, features very low inductance, and can therefore be suitable for applications requiring fast switched gradients. A prototype coil has been constructed to check computer simulations and to compare measured parameters of the system with those expected. Coils of this type may be used for MRI of the human head, and of animals, and for NMR microimaging.
