摘要:
A magnet for MRI apparatus has a magnetic circuit which includes a magnetic flux path formed by a ferromagnetic material and a magnetic flux path formed by magnetic flux return coils or magnetic flux control coils, so that a 5-gauss line of leakage fluxes can be kept within a sphere 3 m in radius even when the static magnetic field intensity exceeds 1 tesla and a comparatively light magnet for MRI apparatus can be provided. Further, the fluxes escaping vertically from the static magnetic field sources are led compactly to a horizontal direction by installing magnetic flux paths of ferromagnetic materials and coils with polarities opposing those of the static magnetic fields. This arrangement minimizes an increase in the total height of the magnet for MRI apparatus, keeping the magnet within the total height of 3 m.

In a nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer, the shape of a detection coil is changed from a conventional cage type to a solenoid type of higher sensitivity. Accordingly, differing from the conventional superconductive magnet of multilayer air core solenoids, a superconductive magnet is right and left divided to split magnets for generating 11 T preferably, 14.1 T in the horizontal direction, and the magnetic field uniformity is set to 0.001 ppm or less and the temporal stability is set to 0.001 ppm or less.

A first room-temperature space is formed penetrating through a cryostat along a center axis of a split-type multi-layer cylindrical superconducting coil system which has a ratio of the maximum empirical magnetic field to the central magnetic filed of not larger than 1.3 and is horizontally arranged such that the center axis of the coil is in the horizontal direction, a room-temperature shim coil system is arranged in said first room-temperature space to improve the homogeneity of the magnetic field, a second room-temperature space is formed penetrating through the cryostat and passing through the center of said split gap in the vertical direction, and a sample to be measured and an NMR probe having a solenoid-type probe coil are inserted in said second room-temperature space. Further, the NMR analyzer has a new function constituted by a system for irradiating and detecting the electromagnetic waves having wavelengths of shorter than 0.1 mm.

It is possible to grasp the behavior of a protein in a cell by realizing a nuclear magnetic resonance imaging method having spatial resolutions on the scale of a cell, and to provide an industrial measure for developing a high-quality protein utilizing this technology. In order to realize spatial resolutions in the order of one-tenth the size of a cell, a supersensitive measurement is realized by the combination of a solenoid detector coil and a high magnetic field NMR of not less than 14 Tesla, which has not been used so far. It is combined with the magnetic field uniformity of 0.001 ppm, so that the supersensitive NMR imaging of 0.5 μm, which has been impossible heretofore, is realized. The physico-chemical behavior of protein molecules can be easily clarified, and thus the bioinfomatic network or the process of metabolism of the cell can be brought out.

A supersensitive nuclear magnetic resonance imaging apparatus includes a superconducting magnet, a gradient magnetic field coil, a high frequency emitting coil, and a receiving coil, wherein a biosample, including at least one of cells, organic tissues, and laboratory small animals, is inserted in a sample chamber of generally 1 to 30 mm in diameter. The superconducting magnet is formed of laterally divided split magnets, and the direction of the magnetic field generated by the magnet is generally horizontal. The receiving coil is in the form of a solenoid coil, and the biosample is inserted from a direction orthogonal to the direction of the magnetic field in a generally vertical direction. The spatial resolution in imaging of the biosample is not more than one-tenth of a cell that forms the biosample.

A split type magnet device configured for a high-sensitivity NMR apparatus and used for solution analysis generates a uniform magnetic field at the center portion of the magnet device of at least 11 T, which is used for determining a sample. The NMR magnet device has left and right solenoid superconducting magnets, which face each other with a predetermined distance being provided therebetween. The left solenoid superconducting magnets and the right solenoid superconducting magnets are substantially coaxial to a central axis, and constituted respectively by a plurality of outermost magnets and a separate plurality of innermost magnets. When a sample energizing current generates a main magnetic NMR detection field in the vicinity of a center portion of the apparatus the current direction in at least one of the plurality of innermost magnets is minus while the current direction in at least one of the plurality of outermost magnets is plus.
