Abstract
For a receiving surface coil for detecting nuclear magnetic resonance signals from a patient, a solution for an easy adaptation of the receiving surface coil to the anatomy of the patient is disclosed. This is achieved by a receiving surface coil for detecting nuclear magnetic resonance signals from a patient, the receiving surface coil comprising: a flexible housing with an opening, a set of RF loop elements housed in the flexible housing, wherein the set of RF loops comprises at least a central loop element running around the opening in the flexible housing and a number of loop elements arranged around the opening.
