This \u003ci\u003eRF Coils for MRI\u003c\/i\u003e handbook is intended to become this reference. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eHeretofore, much of the know-how of RF coil design is bottled up in various industry and academic laboratories around the world. Some of this information on coil technologies and applications techniques has been disseminated through the literature, while more of this knowledge has been withheld for competitive or proprietary advantage. Of the published works, the record of technology development is often incomplete and misleading, accurate referencing and attribution assignment being tantamount to admission of patent infringement in the commercial arena.  Accordingly, the literature on RF coil design is fragmented and confusing.  There are no texts and few courses offered to teach this material. Mastery of the art and science of RF coil design is perhaps best achieved through the learning that comes with a long career in the field at multiple places of employment…until now.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eRF Coils for MRI\u003c\/i\u003e combines the lifetime understanding and expertise of many of the senior designers in the field into a single, practical training manual. It informs the engineer on part numbers and sources of component materials, equipment, engineering services and consulting to enable anyone with electronics bench experience to build, test and interface a coil. The handbook teaches the MR system user how to safely and successfully implement the coil for its intended application. The comprehensive articles also include information required by the scientist or physician to predict respective experiment or clinical performance of a coil for a variety of common applications.  It is expected that \u003ci\u003eRF Coils for MRI\u003c\/i\u003e becomes an important resource for engineers, technicians, scientists, and physicians wanting to safely and successfully buy or build and use MR coils in the clinic or laboratory.  Similarly, this guidebook provides teaching material for students, fellows and residents wanting to better understand the theory and operation of RF coils.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMany of the articles have been written by the pioneers and developers of coils, arrays and probes, so this is all first hand information! The handbook serves as an expository guide for hands-on radiologists, radiographers, physicians, engineers, medical physicists, technologists, and for anyone with interests in building or selecting and using RF coils to achieve best clinical or experimental results.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout \u003ci\u003eEMR Handbooks \/ eMagRes Handbooks\u003c\/i\u003e \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe \u003ci\u003eEncyclopedia of Magnetic Resonance\u003c\/i\u003e (up to 2012) and \u003ci\u003eeMagRes\u003c\/i\u003e (from 2013 onward) publish a wide range of online articles on all aspects of magnetic resonance in physics, chemistry, biology and medicine.
