Abstract
A thermal management component adapted to cool, when present, at least one component of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system is described. The thermal management component is adapted to reduce or eliminate eddy current production during operation of the MRI system. The thermal management component comprises at least one conduit configured to circulate coolant, and at least one thermally-conductive substrate coupled to the at least one conduit and configured to transfer heat from the at least one component to the coolant when circulated through the at least one conduit, wherein the at least one thermally-conductive substrate is configured to reduce or eliminate eddy current production.
