A review of non-traditional approaches and emerging trends in superconducting magnets for
MRI is presented. Novel technologies and concepts have arisen in response to new clinical …

Presently, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) magnets must deliver excellent magnetic field
(B0) uniformity to achieve optimum image quality. Long magnets can satisfy the …

This article describes a range of results, from passive magnet design to optimal feedback
control of a distributed ferrofluid. Representing magnetic forces as the gradient of a magnetic …

We have designed and built a passively shielded, cryogen-free 3 T 160 mm bore bismuth
strontium calcium copper oxide HTS magnet with shielded gradient coils suitable for use in …

Gravity and quantum mechanics are expected to unify at the Planck scale described by an
exceedingly large energy of 10 19 GeV. This regime is far from the reach of the highest …

Active shielding technology has been widely applied to the superconducting magnetic
resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) magnets design …

Main magnets for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are largely constructed with low
temperature superconducting material. Most commonly used superconductors for these …

Brain imaging MRI comprises a significant proportion of MRI scans, but the requirement for
including the shoulders in the magnet bore means there is not a significant size reduction in …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is limited in many cases by long scan times and low
spatial resolution. Recent advances in gradient systems hardware allow very rapid imaging …

An optimization design method of short-length actively shielded and open structure
superconducting MRI magnets is suggested in the paper. Firstly, the section of the solenoid …
