Group homogeneity of Ext. MF
Shim coil
A type of bore OUTSIDE gantry that attracts metal and considered hazard. Acts as a scatter Radiation
Fringe MF
Source of Frequency acts as a transmitter receiver or both part of electromagnetic spectrum that causes a ionization
RFC- radiofrequency coils
final product of rf coils and tissue interaction
Tissue eating
