    摘要: A shielded room for containment of magnetic fringe fields generated by a magnet which forms part of an NMR scanner system utilizes wall members having a thickness proportional to the amount of flux conducted. In the preferred embodiments, the shielded room can have one of rectangular, cylindrical, or polygonal geometries, for example. The walls (floors and ceilings) are constructed from staggered plates to have increased thickness where flux is greatest, and correspondingly decreased thickness where the flux is lowest. The shielded room can be, additionally, provided with end-cap elements in the walls perpendicular to the base of the magnet. Preferentially, the end-cap elements are angled away from the side wall members toward the center of the room to more closely follow the flux path.

    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging system uses a pool of amplifiers (42) to generate gradient signals. Each amplifier (42a,b,c,d) within the pool may be switched among any of the gradient axes, so as to efficiently allocate amplifier power among the gradients. In one embodiment, the amplifiers (42) of the pools are connected in stacks (19) by an input and output matrix comprised of mechanical switches driven in tandem by interlocked motors. The switches connect the outputs of the amplifiers in series. The input signal is "boot strapped" through the amplifier stack to provide proper signal level.

    摘要: A gradient amplifier for use in magnetic resonance imaging equipment employs linear amplifiers in tandem with DC power supplies, the latter serving to provide increased power for rapid gradient switching and the former providing correction current to produce the desired continuous output. The DC power supplies are controlled open loop from the gradient signal used to designate the current in the gradient coil and the amplifiers are operated closed loop in response to a feedback signal from the gradient coil. The DC power supplies may comprise multiple DC units which may be combined to provide finer steps of control prior to correction by the linear amplifier. The units may be weighed in binary fashion to provide improved resolution. The DC power supply in a second embodiment may include storage capacitors that have their charge maintained by the amplifiers receiving a correction current derived from the peak charge on the capacitors.

    摘要: An image data set acquired by an NMR system using an echo-planar pulse sequence is corrected for systemic errors. Errors are measured by acquiring a reference data set using the same echo-planar pulse sequence without phase encoding, and the measured errors are employed to correct phase errors in the image data set.
