Subjects in the open-access human MRI system. a) Subject on the support table, ready for imaging in the supine position. The B1 coil is slid into position with the aid of positional guides on the table, below the subject support bed. b) Subject sitting on a wooden chair, ready for vertical orientation imaging. The B1 coil is raised and lowered with a wooden support mechanism that allows easy positioning of the subject and ensures the coil returns to the correct position, independent of the subject.
