000300267 520__ $$aMany different transmit (Tx) coil concepts and designs for 7-T magnetic resonance imaging of the head have been proposed. Most of them are placed close to the head and in combination with the receive coils creating a helmet-like structure. This limits the space for additional equipment for external stimuli. A large diameter transmit coil can increase the ease using supplementary measurement devices. Therefore, this study systematically evaluated nine different Tx elements regarding their performance within a large diameter transmit coil with a diameter > $$ > $$ 350 mm. Each Tx element was examined regarding its power and specific absorption rate (SAR) efficiencies, its loading dependence, intrinsic decoupling, and its radio frequency (RF) shimming capability. Additionally, an experimental validation of | B 1 + | $$ \mid {B}_1^{+}\mid $$ -maps was performed. The loop-based Tx elements (circular and rectangular loop) provided the highest power and SAR efficiency with at least 15.5% and 21.2% higher efficiencies for a single channel and 22.1% and 18.0% for the eight-channel array, respectively. In terms of voxel-wise power efficiency, the circular loop was the superior Tx element type within most of the head. Looking at the voxel-wise SAR efficiency, the loop-based elements manifest themselves as the most efficient type within most of the central brain. The mutual coupling was lowest for the passively fed dipole ( - $$ - $$ 31.23 dB). The highest RF shimming capability in terms of sum of normalized singular values was calculated for the rectangular (4.21) and the circular loop (4.36), whereby the L-curve results showed that the arrays have only minor | B 1 + | $$ \mid {B}_1^{+}\mid $$ shimming performance differences for the transversal slice. For the hippocampus, the meander element provided the highest overall homogeneity with a minimal coefficient of variation (CoV) of 5.1%. This work provides extensive and unique data for single and eight-channel Tx elements applying common performance benchmarks and enables further discourse on multi-channel evaluations towards large diameter Tx coils at 7-T head imaging. On the bases of the provided results, the preferable Tx element type for this specific application is loop-based.
