(A) Degree of elongation of the loops, starting from circular (diameter 100 mm), middle elongated (diameter 80 mm), and elongated (diameter 60 mm). (B) Measured S11 of SCC (left) and conventional (right) coils when the shape was changed from circular to elongated. The coils were initially tuned at circular shape. (C) Schematics of the coil position on a flat and cylindrical phantom. (D) Measured S11 of SCC (left) and conventional (right) coils when placed on a flat phantom and bent on a cylindrical phantom. The coils were initially tuned when placed on a flat phantom
