Magnetic field shimming of the magnet is a routine practice in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system. For clinically-used 1.5 T or 3 MRI superconducting magnets, it generally straightforward to achieve desired uniformity with passive shim technique. In comparison, shims higher efficiency are usually introduced combination satisfy requirement for ultrahigh magnets (≥7 Tesla). However, involves complex winding structure and low-temperature environment, bringing considerable engineering...
