Zusammenfassung:This document discusses, among other things, a system and method for a coil having a plurality of resonant elements capable of radiofrequency transmission, reception, or both transmission and reception. One example includes a multi-channel receive-only coil comprised of overlapping planar loops. Adjacent resonant elements are decoupled from one another by both capacitive elements and by the geometric configuration of the elements. Cables are coupled to each resonant element and are gathered at a junction in a particular manner.
