Abstract
A probe or catheter to patient RF coupling for magnetic resonance imaging includes a conductive grounding strap. The strap includes a first end spaced apart from a second end, the first end configured to be permanently or removably connectable to a conductive probe or catheter housing or a conductive probe or catheter interface of a probe or catheter. A conductive patient interface is configured to be removably connectable to a portion of a patient's body and electrically conductive between the conductive grounding strap and the patient's body. The conductive patient interface is attached at the second end of the conductive grounding strap and electrically coupled to the conductive probe or catheter housing or the conductive probe or catheter interface. An electrical circuit is formed between the patient's body, the conductive patient interface, the conductive grounding strap, and the conductive probe or catheter housing or interface.
