The technology used for magnetic resonance (MR) procedures has evolved continuously
during the past 20 years, yielding MR systems with stronger static magnetic fields, faster and …

Magnetic resonance is an exceptionally powerful and versatile measurement technique. The
basic structure of a magnetic resonance experiment has remained largely unchanged for …

Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) evaluation of the developing brain has dramatically
increased over the last decade. Faster acquisitions and the development of advanced MRI …

This review article discusses the various types of acoustic noise produced during the
operation of MR systems, describes the characteristics of the acoustic noise, and presents …

Magnetic resonance imaging generates unwanted acoustic noise. This review describes the
work characterizing the acoustic noise, and the various solutions to control and attenuate the …

Magnetic Resonance Procedures: Health Effects and Safety is the first authoritative text on
MR procedures and its associated health and safety concerns written by noted radiologists …

Purpose Unpleasant acoustic noise is a drawback of almost every MRI scan. Instead of
reducing acoustic noise to improve patient comfort, we propose a technique for mitigating …

OBJECTIVE. The objective of our study was to develop a small 1.5-T MRI system for
neonatal imaging that can be installed in the neonatal ICU (NICU) and to evaluate its …
