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…
Portable low-cost MRI systems have the potential to enable point-of-care and timely MRI diagnosis, and to make this imaging modality available to routine scans and to underdeveloped areas. With simplicity, no maintenance, no power…
This paper presents the design and experimental characterization of a 1 T electromagnet tailored to meet the demands of a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system conceived for spatial resolutions at the level of tens of microns. For high…
Low-field MRI is increasingly considered accessible for imaging owing to its lower cost, simpler infrastructure requirements, and potential for mobile and point-of-care deployment. A central challenge is achieving clinically useful field…
Homogeneous magnetic fields can be generated through the strategic arrangement of permanent magnets. The Halbach array serves as a prominent example of an effective design following this principle. However, it is a two-dimensional approach…
We optimised the magnetic field homogeneity of two canonical designs for mobile microfluidic NMR applications: two parallel magnets with an air gap and a modified Halbach array. Along with the influence of the sample length, general design…
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…
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…
It is well known that magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 7 Tesla (7T) and higher magnets can provide much better signal sensitivity compared with lower field strengths. However, variety of commercially available ultra-high-field MRI coils…
A method to create a highly homogeneous magnetic field by applying topology optimized, additively manufactured shimming elements is investigated. The topology optimization algorithm can calculate a suitable permanent and nonlinear soft…
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…
Purpose: To design a low-cost, portable permanent magnet-based MRI system capable of obtaining in vivo MR images within a reasonable scan time. Methods: A discretized Halbach permanent magnet array with a clear bore diameter of 27 cm was…
Halbach magnets are a source of homogeneous magnetic field in an enclosed volume while keeping stray fields at a minimum. Here, we present the design, construction, and characterization for a 10 cm inner diameter double Halbach ring…
We present a permanent magnet arrangement that can achieve a tuneable axial magnetic field from 1.80(8)-2.67(2) kG along the z-axis, where (x,y) = (0,0), with a rms field variation of less than 1% over a length of 25 mm. The instrument…

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…
Ultrahigh-field MRI, such as those operating at 7 Tesla, enhances diagnostic capabilities but also presents unique challenges, including the need for advanced RF coil designs to achieve an optimal signal-to-noise ratio and transmit…
