摘要: Ultra-low-field MRI is an emerging technology that allows and NMR measurements in microtesla-range fields. In this work, the possibilities of relaxation-based temperature with ultra-low-field were investigated by measuring T1 T2 relaxation times agarose gel at 50 μT-52 mT temperatures 5-45°C. Measurements a 3T scanner made for comparison. The Bloembergen-Purcell-Pound theory was combined two-state model to explain field-strength dependence data. results show dependencies microtesla range differ drastically from those 3T; effect on reversed approximately 5 mT. obtained used reconstruct maps scans. These time-dependent measured phantom μT reproduced gradient good contrast.
