3 DAY + 1PREP
State-of-the-art Philips MRI scanner equipped with 32-channel brain array and actively-shielded superconducting magnet. Ultra high field 7 T human MRI system can provide ultra high resolution (~0.2 mm) images, comparable to usual 1.5 T or 3 T MRI system. Many collaborators can join the studies on the brain/body functions and anatomic structures to solve the national agenda. - Actively shielded compact 7 Tesla superconducting magnet - Actively shielded gradient and 8 channel transmit and 32 channel receive RF systems - Ultra-high resolution images and high resolution spectroscopic analysis - Multi-nuclear (13C, 23Na and 31P) imaging and spectroscopic analysis
- Application Area
- - Studies on brain structure/brain diseases/brain functions, Diagnosis of diseases - Studies on various body-parts (eg. abdominal region, spine, knee, foot, etc.)
- Specifications
- 1. 7 T Human MRI - Superconducting magnet: Actively shielded, Field strength 7.0 Tesla - Gradient system: Amplitude 40mT/m (x, y, z, each), max. slew rate 200mT/m/msec - RF System: 8 transmit channels, 1H amp max. power 16 kW (2 kW x 8), 32 receiver channels - Various RF coils: 32 channel brain coil, knee coil, wrist coil, 23Na/31P/13C double tuned head coil
