Radio frequency coil, magnetic resonance imaging device using same, and method for adjusting multi-channel radio frequency coil

An RF coil comprising,

• a first subcoil having a first loop coil unit made of a conductor, being capable of receiving nuclear magnetic resonance signals from a subject,
• a second subcoil having a second loop coil unit made of the conductor, being capable of receiving the nuclear magnetic resonance signals from the subject, and
• an electromagnetic coupler placed between the first subcoil and the second subcoil, and configured to couple the first subcoil and the second subcoil electromagnetically, wherein,
• adjustments are made in a manner that a part of a first current passing through the first loop coil unit, according to signals detected by the first loop coil unit, is made to flow into the second loop coil unit in the form of a first sub-current, and an electric field generated in the subject by the first current and an electric field generated in the subject by the first sub-current intensify each other in a space between the first loop coil unit and the second loop coil unit.
