We present a technology that allows for the direct writing of conductive tracks on cylindrical substrates as receiver coils for magnetic resonance (MR) experiments. The structures are written with high precision, which has two benefits. First, the real structures behave very similarly to the simulated designs, reducing the component variation; second, this allows for the writing of coils apart from the fairly straightforward solenoidal coils, thereby making complex designs available for MR microcoils.
