Theory of gradient coil design methods for magnetic resonance imaging

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the process to produce an MR image including nuclear alignment, RF excitation, spatial encoding, and image formation, which is achieved using gradient coils, which vary linearly with position over the imaging volume.

A novel target-field method for finite-length magnetic resonance shim coils: II. Tesseral shims

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present a new approach for the design of finite-length shim and gradient coils of the type that are used in magnetic resonance imaging applications, where a cylindrical target region is located arbitrarily within the coil, and the exact geometry of the coil is treated without approximation.

On the induced electric field gradients in the human body for magnetic stimulation by gradient coils in MRI

TL;DR: Some insight is provided into the spatial characteristics of the induced field gradients for PNS in MRI, which may be used to further evaluate the sites where magnetic stimulation is likely to occur and to optimize gradient coil design.

Constrained length minimum inductance gradient coil design

TL;DR: A modified minimum inductance target field method that allows the placement of a set of constraints on the final current density is presented and demonstrates that a general analytic method can be used to easily obtain very short gradient coil designs for use with specialized magnet systems.
