This engineering study describes development of a patch antenna array coil (PAAC) intended to address short RF wavelength challenges in ultra-high-field (≥7T) MRI. A prototype PAAC for 7T proton imaging was used to image a monkey brain. The authors report that the imaging demonstrated the coil's utility for…
