Abstract
This paper presents an approach to investigate the influence of metamaterial to radio-frequency (RF) magnetic field in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 3T. The variety of magnetic fields of RF receiving coil was calculated using the commercial electromagnetic simulation software (CST). The simulation results demonstrate that the transmitting and receiving magnetic field (B1+ and B1-) can be enhanced when the metamaterial is inserted into the RF coil, suggesting that the metamaterial has potential in MRI applications at 3T.
