Abstract

A medical radiofrequency coil may comprise: a base substrate; and a radio coil unit having a first coil element which has a rectangular shape and is formed along an edge of the inner peripheral surface of the base substrate, and a second coil element which is formed at the inner side of the first coil element and has a shape of paired paddles connected to each other. Therefore, the present inventive concept provides a radiofrequency coil, which can minimize an image distortion due to a beam-hardening artifact effect, and a medical imaging device including the same.
