Abstract
The invention discloses a decoupling circuit (32) disposed between adjacent RF receive coil elements to automatically decouple the adjacent MRI RF receive coil elements. In one embodiment, the invention involves to inject an RF signal into a first coil element, to measure the RF signal coupled from the first coil element into a second coil element and to adjust the capacitance of the decoupling circuit such as to minimize the coupling between the first and the second coil elements.
