Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the present invention relate to magnetic resonance technology, and in particular to a method for adjusting a magnetic resonance radio frequency coil, a magnetic resonance scanning system and a medium. Background technique [0002] At present, the receiving coil of the mainstream magnetic resonance system adopts the design of the array coil, and a plurality of ring coils are arranged in a specific array to form the whole coil. An array coil has a higher signal-to-noise ratio than a single coil for the same coverage area. Between different coil units arranged in an array, due to the existence of magnetic field coupling, there will be mutual interference. When the inter-unit coupling deteriorates to a certain extent, there is an observable loss in the signal-to-noise ratio of the merged image. Therefore, an important design factor of the array coil is decoupling between elements. [0003] The commonly used decoupling method is overlap de...
