Abstract:
A radio frequency coil assembly is provided. The radio frequency coil assembly includes: a first radio frequency coil for receiving a magnetic resonance signal from a tested body; a second radio frequency coil for receiving a magnetic resonance signal from the tested body; and a third radio frequency coil for receiving a magnetic resonance signal from the tested body and having a shape which is different from that of at least one of the first and second radio frequency coils so as to increase a local sensitivity in an image-picked-up region.
