A permanent magnet array (PMA) is a preferred source of magnetic field for body-part-dedicated low-field (<0.5 T) portable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) because it has a small footprint, no power consumption, and no need for a cooling…
Access to and availability of MRI scanners is typically limited by their cost, siting and infrastructure requirements. This precludes MRI diagnostics, the reference standard for neurological assessment, in patients who cannot be transported…
Very-low-field MRIs are becoming increasingly popular due to their portability and adaptability to different environments. They are being successfully used for various clinical applications, leading to a paradigm shift in the way imaging…
Presently, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) magnets must deliver excellent magnetic field (B0) uniformity to achieve optimum image quality. Long magnets can satisfy the homogeneity requirements but require considerable superconducting…
A design for a permanent magnet system is proposed that generates spatially homogeneous, constant magnetic field gradients, thus creating conditions suitable for MRI without gradient coils and amplifiers. This is achieved by superimposing a…
We present a design and the optimization of an irregular-shaped ring-pair magnet array that generates a 1D monotonic field pattern for 2D head imaging in a low-field portable MRI system. The magnet rings are discretized into fan-shaped ring…
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the gold standard imaging modality for numerous diagnostic tasks, yet its usefulness is tempered due to its high cost and infrastructural requirements. Low-cost very-low-field portable scanners offer new…
Mobile medical imaging devices are invaluable for clinical diagnostic purposes both in and outside healthcare institutions. Among the various imaging modalities, only a few are readily portable. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), the gold…
Permanent magnet array (PMA) is a popular option to provide the main magnetic field in a dedicated portable magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) system because it does not need power or a cooling system and has a much stronger field strength…
Purpose: Conventional MRI is relying on the assumption of the magnetic field being homogeneous in direction and amplitude. However, with the growing interest in portable, affordable point-of-care MRI systems, these assumptions do not…
There is a growing interest in portable MRI (pMRI) systems for point-of-care imaging, particularly in remote or resource-constrained environments. However, the computational complexity of pMRI, especially in image reconstruction and machine…
Accelerating Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) by taking fewer measurements has the potential to reduce medical costs, minimize stress to patients and make MRI possible in applications where it is currently prohibitively slow or expensive.…
