AB This technical report describes use of a novel, conformable receive-only radiofrequency coil for 3T MR neurography in a cohort of patients with occipital neuralgia. Applying a submillimeter, isotropic 3D double-echo steady-state sequence, detailed visualization of the occipital nerves and associated pathologies could be achieved.DESSdouble-echo steady-stateDRGdorsal root gangliaETLecho train lengthFACEflexible array for cervical and extraspinalGONgreater occipital nerveHNUhead-neck unitLONlesser occipital nervePSIFreversed fast imaging in steady-state free precessionRBWreceiver bandwidthTONthird occipital nerveZTEzero-echo time
