Differing QA Procedure for RX-only Array CryoProbes
Differing QA Procedure for RX-only Array CryoProbes
For QA of Mouse and Rat Brain 2x2 Array Coils, modify in the QA_SNR Protocol the following protocol entries:
FOV 40 x 20 mm (instead of the default 80 x 40 mm)
Slices: 3
Slice Distance: 4.5 mm (note: the same slice distance is used for rat and mouse coils)
and move the slice package exactly to the position shown below:
At a slice distance of 4.5 mm, the 3 slices are measured exactly at the array element positions and in between (images show a room temperature mouse array coil and phantom T9660. CryoProbe array images look similar; in case of rat with the larger phantom).
