Abstract

Magnetic Particle Imaging is capable of three-dimensional real-time imaging. Due to high spatial and temporal resolution, the method offers a great potential to be used in interventional scenarios. In this contribution, a design study integrating a single-sided coil assembly into a patient table is presented. An elliptical and an approximated elliptical coil topology are compared and proposed as alternatives to the commonly used circular shaped coils. Through this, the size of the field of view can be extended while not exceeding the lateral width of the patient table.
