摘要： A tracking system in which radiofrequency signals emitted by an invasive device such as a catheter are detected and used to measure the position and orientation of the invasive device within a subject. Detection of the radiofrequency signals is accomplished with coils having sensitivity profiles which vary approximately linearly with position. The invasive device has a transmit coil attached near its end and is driven by a low power RF source to produce a dipole electromagnetic field that can be detected by an array of receive coils distributed around a region of interest of the subject. The position and orientation of the device as determined by the tracking system are superimposed upon independently acquired Medical Diagnostic images, thereby minimizing the diagnostic exposure times. One or more invasive devices can be simultaneously tracked.

摘要： In the production of nuclear magnetic resonance images, it is necessary to provide various magnetic fields with specified orientations and configurations in particular relationships with respect to a cylindrical coil form on which the RF and gradient coils are generally disposed. In particular, it is necessary to produce so-called transverse gradient fields which are oriented transversely with respect to the cylindrical form. It is necessary to produce a component parallel to the axis of the cylinder, but which component varies linearly in intensity in the direction transverse to the axis. That is to say, it is desirable to produce a magnetic field component within the cylinder such that surfaces on which this component is constant are parallel and are generally oriented parallel to the axis of the cylinder. Furthermore, for the purpose of providing proper spatial definition and resolution, it is necessary that this transverse field exhibit a highly linear variation in intensity inside the cylinder. In a nuclear magnetic resonance imaging system, two such coil sets are required and are oriented at right angles to one another so as to generate x-axis and y-axis positioning information. The present invention describes coil winding patterns which are capable of producing such transverse gradient magnetic fields with an exceedingly high degree of linearity.

摘要： A radio-frequency coil, for nuclear magnetic resonance imaging at Larmor frequencies associated with a magnetic field of greater than about 0.5 Tesla, comprises a slotted-tube radio-frequency resonator having an elliptical cross-section. First and second complementary outer resonator portions have central bands connecting juxtaposed wing structures; the end of each of the four wings is spaced from a complementary wing portion of the other outer portion and capacitively coupled thereto. An inner structure has a pair of elliptical guard rings placed substantially in registration with the elliptical portions of the outer structure wing portions. The eccentricity ratio of the elliptical cross-section of the resonator and the resonator dimensions are arranged to provide an interior volume into which a human head or body extremity can be placed for imaging purposes.

摘要： A field effect transistor including conventional source and drain electrodes employs, in the gate region, a layer of antibody specific to a particular antigen. An electrolyte solution such as 0.155 Normal sodium chloride atop the antibody layer provides a predetermined drain current versus drain voltage characteristic for the device. Replacement of the electrolyte solution with another electrolyte solution containing the antigen alters the charge of the protein surface layer due to the antigen-antibody reaction, thus affecting charge concentration in a semiconductor inversion layer in the transistor. The time rate of change of drain current thus provides a measure of the antigenic protein concentration in the replacement solution.

摘要： In one embodiment, referred to as the "high-pass" version, the radio frequency (RF) coil is made up of two conductive loop elements, each including serially-connected capacitors. The loop elements are electrically interconnected by axial conductive segments having inherent inductances associated therewith. Electrically, the coil can be viewed as a slow wave delay line structure wrapped around a cylinder and connected to itself. The coil can be energized by connecting a source of RF power across one of the capacitors in the loop elements. In another embodiment, termed the "band-pass" version, the axial conductive segments, as well as the conductive loop elements, are provided with capacitors.

摘要： A cylindrical coil for providing a magnetic field having a substantially linear gradient in an axial direction within the volume of the cylinder, as can be utilized in NMR apparatus, includes a cylindrical coil support structure and electrically conductive winding turns wound on the outer surface of the support structure. The winding turns are electrically insulated from each other and are located such that the axial density of the winding turns increases linearly from the center of the coil to each axial end thereof. Preferably, the winding turns are located so that the angular position .phi. of the spiral path of the windings on the surface of the cylindrical support structure satisfies the relationship determined by the equation ##EQU1## The coil may also include additional electrically conductive winding turns for compensating for variations in the linearity of the magnetic field gradient which are due to the coil being of finite length. Coils in accordance with the instant invention may be utilized to provide an improved nuclear magnetic resonance imaging and analysis system.
