Though this is a small-bore research scanner not meant for human imaging, 9.4 T scanners have been used to image the human head [23], [24].
Therefore, we have investigated the forces acting on biogenic magnetite particles in the body under the field and gradient conditions present in a 7T whole body scanner and a 9.4T small-bore research scanner with the aim of determining the threshold for effects on cellular ion channels.
Theoretical evaluation of the forces acting on 100 nm particles for both the 7T whole body scanner and the 9.4T research scanner reveals that any forces induced on the most magnetic iron compounds in the body would fall well short of the threshold for channel activation/disruption (Figure 2a).
This was possible due to installation of a dedicate research scanner on site.
Therefore, as of January 2011, a total of 5,886 brain MR-scans have been obtained on the research scanner.
Therefore, as of July 2015, a total of 12,174 brain MR-scans have been obtained on the research scanner in over 5800 individuals.
From 2005 onwards, the Rotterdam Scan Study has been embedded within the core protocol of the Rotterdam Study [ 20], and a dedicated research scanner was installed in the Rotterdam Study research center.
Secondary outcomes included (1) NASH and (2) dichotomized fibrosis stages, including stage 0 versus stage 1-4, stage 0-1 verstagetage 2-4, and stage 0-3 verstagetage 4. MRI examinations were performed using a 3T research scanner (GE Signa EXCITE HDxt GE Healthcaree, Waukesha, WI) at the UCSD MR3T Research Laboratory.
The research uses scanners at Manchester's Royal Children's Hospital, because they are not normally needed at night time.
This research marries scanner panel choice data of consumers in single member households to their survey-based perception data and draws upon behavioral and modeling research to contribute to the variety seeking literature.
