Nevertheless collecting the data required the rapidly successive use of several pieces of equipment and procedures including electromyography, neuronavigation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, use of bespoke grasping apparatus in the magnetic resonance imaging environment, and functional magnetic resonance imaging.
Given the logistical difficulties of this type of study (electromyography, neuronavigation, transcranial magnetic stimulation, use of bespoke grasping apparatus in the magnetic resonance imaging environment, and functional magnetic resonance imaging) we opted for this setup to maximize the chance of getting good and reliable data.
A new pacing system has been designed and tested preclinically for safe use in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment.
This study evaluated the heating and magnetic field interactions of fixed partial dentures in a 3-Tesla (3T) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment.
A touchscreen interface permits rich user interactions for research in many fields, but is rarely found within a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) environment due to difficulties adapting conventional technologies to the strong electromagnetic fields.
The authors performed this study to determine whether reaction times (RTs) recorded in the functional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging environment reflect the performance of the patient outside the imaging room.
Although there are several hazards for patients with implanted pacemakers and defibrillators in the magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) environment, evaluation of lead electrode heating is the most complex because of the many influencing variables: patient size, anatomy, body composition, patient position in the bore, scan sequence (radiofrequency power level), lead routing, and lead design.
We chose to analyze the MATPASS spectra in greater detail since these spectra do not suffer the additional complications of the overlap between the isotropic resonance of one environment and the sidebands of another.
The review also addresses techniques investigated for both exciting and measuring cantilever resonance in various environments (vacuum, air, and liquid).
