Photos of the glove coil with the hand starched out and the corresponding T1 weighted MR images (a). Photos of the glove coil while holding a peach and the corresponding T1 weighted MR images (b). Illustrations showing where the individual coil elements are located on the hand next to the individual coil images obtained during a single T1 weighted measurement with all coils simultaneously activated (c). For a side by side comparison of simultaneously and sequentially acquired images see supplemental figure S5. The left hand of three volunteers was scanned during separate sessions, all experiments demonstrated similar image quality and flexibility. Images show representative results from one volunteer.
