    摘要: A magnetic field sensor which can achieve sensitivities competitive with modern sensors while simultaneously maintaining a small size, low power consumption, simplicity of design, and low cost. The magnetic field sensor utilizes nonlinear precession dynamics of subatomic spins to attain parametric amplification of a magnetic field. A preliminary experimental implementation of the proposed concept establishes its feasibility and can already demonstrate significant benefits over existing approaches to sensing.

    摘要: A hysteresis effect-based Field Free Point-Magnetic Particle Imaging (FFP-MPI) method includes the following steps: acquiring a hysteresis loop model of Superparamagnetic Iron Oxide Nanoparticles (SPIOs); calculating to obtain a Point Spread Function (PSF) of the SPIOs on the basis of a sinusoidal excitation magnetic field and the hysteresis loop model of the SPIOs; acquiring an original reconstructed image of FFP-MPI on the basis an FFP moving track and a voltage signal; performing deconvolution on the original image with respect to the PSF considering an hysteresis effect, so as to obtain a final reconstructed image; the artifacts and phase errors of image reconstruction caused by the hysteresis effect of the SPIOs with large particle sizes are reduced, the deficiency in reconstruction by the traditional reconstruction method that ignores the hysteresis effect is overcome, the reconstruction speed and the resolution are greatly improved, and the application range of the SPIOs is expanded.

    摘要: In a method for control, input magnetic field map data is received. In this case, the input magnetic field map data for at least one magnetic field type in each case describes a magnetic field map for a state that an examination object is in at an initial location in the MR apparatus. In this case, the estimated magnetic field map data for at least one magnetic field type in each case describes at least one magnetic field map for in each case a state that the examination object is in at an alternative location that is different compared to the initial location. Control data is determined by the system control unit, using the estimated magnetic field map data or using the input magnetic field map data and the estimated magnetic field map data. The control data is suitable for controlling the MR apparatus.

    摘要: A magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system includes an MRI magnet (100) including a bore (101) and having a magnetic field and a gradient coil (400) disposed within the bore and having an isocenter (404). A first location within the MRI magnet is determined with respect to a first predetermined reference surface of the MRI magnet, the first location representing a center (104) of the magnetic field. A second location within the gradient coil is determined with respect to a second predetermined reference surface of the gradient coil, the second location representing the isocenter. When the gradient coil is installed within the bore, the second predetermined reference surface abuts the first predetermined reference surface. The first predetermined reference surface is adjusted to an adjusted position, the adjusted position being determined as a function of the first location and the second location and corresponding to a position of the first predetermined reference surface at which the first location coincides with the second location when the gradient coil is installed within the bore.
