Intended purpose
The Medspira (formerly Mayo Clinic) BC-10 Transmit/Receive coil is a 12 leg, high pass, quadrature design for high resolution musculoskeletal imaging. The BC-10 MRI Coil is to be used with the GE Healthcare Solutions Signa 1.5T and 3.0T type MRI scanners. The coil dimensions are approximately 10 cm diameter and length, and can operate at frequencies associated with either 1.5T or 3.0T proton based magnetic resonance imaging. The operating frequency is established at construction via placement of individual ceramic capacitors and can be identified by the part number on the coil. This procedure is included in the service manual sent with each coil.
