 Abstract: Surface loop transceiver head phased arrays improve transmit efficiency in comparison to larger Tx-only arrays due to tighter fit. However, the number of elements is limited by the number of available Tx-channels and decoupling issues, which compromises SNR and parallel receive performance. As a proof of concept we developed and constructed a novel splittable 9.4T transceiver array. Splitting of each Tx-loop doubles the number of Rx-elements without necessity of moving the array away from the subject, which allows optimization of both Tx and Rx performance at the same time. Splitting in a larger number of Rx-elements, (e.g.4, 8), is possible.
