Abstract

A radio frequency surface probe for data acquisition in magnetic resonance systems. The probe is comprised of a plurality of inductors connected together with tuning capacitors in a balanced configuration. The configuration enables the probe to be impedance matched and to resonate at two separate frequencies without having to be tuned between frequency settings and without being effected by the impedance variations that are caused by the different samples or patients.
