(author), O’Reilly, Tom (author), Webb, A. (author)Low-field permanent magnet-based MRI systems are finding increasing use in portable, sustainable and point-of-care applications. In order to maximize performance while minimizing cost many components of such a system should ideally be designed specifically for low frequency operation. In this paper we describe recent developments in...journal article 2021

O’Reilly, Thomas (author), Teeuwisse, Wouter M. (author), de Gans, D.H. (author), Koolstra, Kirsten (author), Webb, A. (author)Purpose: To design a low-cost, portable permanent magnet-based MRI system capable of obtaining in vivo MR images within a reasonable scan time. Methods: A discretized Halbach permanent magnet array with a clear bore diameter of 27 cm was designed for operation at 50 mT. Custom-built gradient coils, RF coil, gradient amplifiers, and RF...journal article 2021
