"Volume coils are the transmit and receive radiofrequency coils which are used to both transmit and receive the radiofrequency signal in MRI. Most MRI scanners have what is called a body coil – which is a volume coil built into the bore of the magnet which transmits the radiofrequency for most examinations. Certain types of imaging require additional smaller volume coils – such as in head and occasionally in extremity imaging (e.g. the knees)."

"Volume coils generally have a homogeneous RF excitation across a large volume. This is important for transmission, but has the downside of receiving a lot of noise when the target region of interest is small."
