The electrical properties of human tissue influence the RF uniformity that is achievable in
MRI. Clinical 3.0 T MRI systems capable of MultiTransmit RF technology have recently been …

The original motivation for exploring partial Fourier image reconstruction methods for MRI
was the possibility of completing an acquisition in roughly half the normal time. For standard …

Proton-proton interactions above 100 GeV have been studied in an experiment using
cosmic-ray protons interacting in a liquid hydrogen target. From several hundred hydrogen …

The desire to improve patient comfort and acceptance of high field magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) systems results in new-approaches to magnet and other critical MRI component …

It is desirable to have a high speed whole body gradient coil with a central gap between
coils of 200mm for applications in MRI guided Radiation Therapy. Multileaved Collimators (…

MATERIALS AND METHODS The imaging camera is illustrated in Fig. 2. In brief, it consists
of an off-axis Fresnel zone plate constructed of concentric, alternately opaque (lead), and …

Several possible methods to distinguish protons and pions in the cosmic radiation at energies
of over 100 GeV are discussed. One of these methods based on multiple sampling of …

Estimation of the extent of regional ischemia by scintigraphic methods has been hampered
by the geometric constraints of two-dimensional imag ing. Myocardial perfusion scintigraphy …

This paper comes from a realistic engineering project — an optimal design of the gradient
system for a NMR machine for medical imaging. A three-dimensional finite element model was …

In a 3T whole body MRI system, the body tissue dielectric effects become important. It can
considerably decrease B1-field homogeneity and affect image quality. Experiments show that …
