PERES coil has proved that produce high-resolution brain images on clinical imagers with a magnetic field intensity of 1.5 Tesla. However, both phantom and brain images showed an acceptable field uniformity. To enhance the homogeneity of the field generated by this coil design, a new configuration has been proposed in this work. This layout consists of 8 petal coils in a mail-chain like structure inside a greater circular-shaped coil. Tuning and matching of the coil can be easily made even for frequencies higher than 64 MHz.
