MRI turo Flashcards
what is NMV
the number of excess of protons aligned in the parallel direction in contrast to antiparallel direction.
what is precession
the presence of a secondary motion in the magnetic field.
the circular motion around the magnetic field B0.
Is NMV in phase coherence in the Z axis
NO
what is the coil made from
naiobium titanium 0.7mm, thousands of filaments in copper casing
what is the superconductor cooled in
liquid helium
are gradient coils mounted along the x and y plane
true
gradient coils generate static magnetic field to allow the signal to be localise
false- varies with time
how to tell when there is effiicient spin lattice tissue energy exchange.
rate of brownian moion is similar to the spin of the H nuclei
