Title:
DEVICE AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING OF METALLIC OR PARTIALLY METALLIC COMPONENTS, AND APPLICATION OF THIS METHOD TO THE IMAGING OF ELECTROCHEMICAL CELLS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2024/094867
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
The invention relates to a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) device (1), designed to image an essentially metallic component, comprising means (b'') for generating a polarization magnetic field intended to be applied to said component (a), radiofrequency (RF) means (g) for exciting said component (a), detection means cooperating with antenna means, for delivering a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) signal, and means for processing said MRI signal so as to deliver characteristic information about the state of said component (a). The component (a) is subjected to a very weak field of less than 10 mT, and the detection means comprise a pick-up coil (h) magnetically coupled with the polarization means (b'') and the radiofrequency means (g) and operating as a flux concentrator, and a SQUID (superconducting quantum interference device) detector arranged downstream of said pick-up coil (h) via a transformer.
