(GRADIENT) ECHO BEACH – FAR AWAY IN TIME [1] Magnetic resonance, in the hands of physicists and chemists, normally starts with the sample in a magnet that has been carefully adjusted to have a highly uniform magnetic field. In a process known as shimming (originally done with small metal plates, and now generally aided […]
Magnetic resonance imaging is based on a peculiar property of the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, which can be made to absorb and transmit radio waves when placed in a strong magnetic field. The exact radio frequency is precisely proportional to the exact magnetic field, so by making the magnetic field stronger on one side […]
A T1 weighted image is one of the common basic types of image. T1 weighted images highlight fat and are sensitive to the effect of paramagnetic contrast agents. Because T1 weighted images are quick to collect, have a high signal:noise ratio, and show high signal intensity from fat in brain, nervous tissue and bone they are […]
