Abstract

See full text

A positioning device for a surface coil used in NMR scanning is described. A non-metallic container allows a MRI surface oil to reside therein. An elongated rod extending through an opening on a side of the container is attached to the coil. A clear cover is placed over the container which is then placed under the patient. As the NMR scanning is performed for medical diagnosis, the coil is adjusted to the desired position by movement of the rod.
