Ultra-low field magnetic resonance imaging with an array of localised magnetic field sensor

Abstract:: The aim is to design and construct a multifunctional ultra-low magnetic field (ULF) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) instrument equipped with novel magnetic field sensors developed at UQ. This project is significant because it will deliver an instrument with enhanced sensitivity which is capable of obtaining non-invasively 3D structural imaging of samples. It will be an economical solution since costs for operation and maintenance as well as power consumption are low which enables operation of high sensitive ULF-MRI or ULF-NMR with regenerative energy sources.
