Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a noninvasive medical imaging technology with a high spatial resolution. We aim to design a single-channel radiofrequency receive coil with an optimized signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) for various field intensities in MRI. We propose a method that maximizes the SNR th...
