Abstract

A radio-frequency (RF) coil for use in a low-field magnetic resonance imaging system and methods of making the same are provided. The RF coil may include a conductor arranged on a substrate in an arrangement such that symmetry in the arrangement cancels at least a portion of a common mode voltage when a current is passed through the conductor. The RF coil may be included in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system for imaging a patient having at least one B0 magnet for generating a B0 magnetic field.
