abstract = {With the increasing availability of ultra-high field MRI
systems, studying non-proton nuclei (X-nuclei), such as 23Na
and 31P has received great interest. X-nuclei are able to
provide insight into important cellular processes and energy
metabolism in tissues and by monitoring these nuclei closely
it is possible to establish links to pathological conditions
and neurodegenerative diseases. In order to investigate
X-nuclei, a well-designed radiofrequency (RF) system with a
multi-tuned RF coil is required. However, as the intrinsic
sensitivity of non-proton nuclei is lower compared to 1H, it
is important to ensure that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)
of the X-nuclei is as high as possible. This review aims to
give a comprehensive overview of previous efforts, with
particular focus on the design concept of multi-tuned coils,
predominantly for brain applications. In order to guide the
readers, the main body of the review is categorised into two
parts: state-of-the art according to the single or multiple
design structures and emerging technologies. A more detailed
description is given in each subsection relating to the
specific design approaches of, mostly, double-tuned coils,
including using traps, PIN-diodes, nested and metamaterial,
together with explanations of their novelties, optimal
solutions and trade-offs.},
