Open Source Gradient Systems using a single carrier for the OSI2 MRI Scanner

Motivation: Design fully documented gradient systems for the OSI2 open source MRI scanner that can be adapted and replicated. Goal(s): Make all design and post-processing steps open source to enable for replication and adaptation. Generate a conventional and an alternative design which is rotated by a magic angle such, that all channels exhibit similar efficiency and inductance. Approach: Gradients were designed using CoilGen, 3D Objects were modified using Blender. Final STL files are available for replication. Results: All files and steps of a conventional and a rotated magic angle coil are openly available on Gitlab. Impact: We enable others to replicate and easily adapt MRI gradient coil designs. This includes all post-processing steps which allows to altered the designs to specific requirements.

Abstract

Motivation: Design fully documented gradient systems for the OSI2 open source MRI scanner that can be adapted and replicated. Goal(s): Make all design and post-processing steps open source to enable for replication and adaptation. Generate a conventional and an alternative design which is rotated by a magic angle such, that all channels exhibit similar efficiency and inductance. Approach: Gradients were designed using CoilGen, 3D Objects were modified using Blender. Final STL files are available for replication. Results: All files and steps of a conventional and a rotated magic angle coil are openly available on Gitlab. Impact: We enable others to replicate and easily adapt MRI gradient coil designs. This includes all post-processing steps which allows to altered the designs to specific requirements.
