This design has been made by the coil-lab of the High Field MRI Group of the UMC Utrecht in the Netherlands, where we make hardware to support our researchers. We are part of a research group which means we feel the need to open up some of our designs to whomever can make use of it, to further the research of MRI applications.
This specific PCB was made for deuterium imaging on a 7 Tesla MRI scanner (45.75MHz), with a maximum input power of about 10kW. The simulation contains formulas to automatically calculate the right components for a given frequency. It can also be expanded to facilitate N-number of channels, assuming real world restrictions don't impede this process.
