Zusammenfassung:	Method and apparatus for hardware coil compression is disclosed. The coils in an array configured for the same region of interest are grouped into sub-arrays. The coils of each sub-array are pre-combined with a hardware combiner before further processing. The pre-combination converter composed of the pre-combiners is flexible, i.e., applicable to for example non-cylindrical coils; simpler than direct implementation of the software compression algorithm; and commercially feasible.
