Linearly polarized signal sources-inductively and receptively coupled radiofrequency coils-are used in the experimental setups to demonstrate the ability of the method to separate these sources from a forward polarized anatomy signal. Two different applications of the reverse polarization method are presented here: (a) catheter tracking and (b) fiducial marker visualization, in both of which transmit and receive arrays are used. The performance of the reverse polarization method was further tested with phantom and volunteer studies, and the results proved the feasibility of this method with transmit and receive arrays.EnglishFiducial markerInductive and receptive couplingInterventional device trackingInterventional MRIPhased array coilsReverse polarizationTransmit array systemArticle10.1002/mrm.23030
