Harmonic analysis and optimization for closed‐loop superconducting shim coils of 7 T MRI magnet

The study successfully demonstrates the creation of a set of second-order shim coils for a 7 T animal MRI system through numerical optimization. The design outputs provide essential technological support for the development of a human whole-body 7 T MRI system, ensuring high-quality imaging at the neuronal level. The project also highlights the importance of considering manufacturing and assembly flaws in the shim coil design process to achieve effective shimming in practical engineering scenarios.

Abstract

The study successfully demonstrates the creation of a set of second-order shim coils for a 7 T animal MRI system through numerical optimization. The design outputs provide essential technological support for the development of a human whole-body 7 T MRI system, ensuring high-quality imaging at the neuronal level. The project also highlights the importance of considering manufacturing and assembly flaws in the shim coil design process to achieve effective shimming in practical engineering scenarios.
