This article reviews recent developments in designing and testing new types of materials
which can be:(i) placed around the body for in vivo imaging,(ii) be integrated into a …

Parallel transmission (pTX) techniques are required to tackle a number of challenges, eg,
the inhomogeneous distribution of the transmit field and elevated specific absorption rate …

One approach to increasing nuclear magnetic resonance measurement sample throughput
is to implement multiple, independent detection sites. However, the presence of radio …

We have been working on the development of a PET insert for existing magnetic resonance
imaging (MRI) systems for simultaneous PET/MR imaging, which integrates radiofrequency …

1.1 Introduction the diversity of magnetic resonance (Mr) experiments is enormous, ranging
from simple one-dimensional proton nuclear magnetic resonance (nMr) spectroscopy …

The proper design of birdcage (BC) coils plays a very important role in the acquisition of
highresolution magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of small animals such as rodents. In this …

Ultrahigh field imaging of the body and the spine is challenging due to the large field-of-view
(FOV) required. It is especially difficult for RF transmission due to its requirement on both the …

Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of small samples and nuclei with a low gyromagnetic
ratio is intrinsically insensitive due to the received signal dependence on Boltzmann's …

Interest in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at high fields strengths (3 Tesla and above) is
driven by the associated improvements in signal-to-noise ratio and spectral resolution. In …

(3 T for example) to ultra high (7 T for example) magnetic field is provided. RF shielded
radiation detector modules are separately disposed in a form of full or partial ring shape. The …
