Abstract: Disclosed is a method and apparatus for frequency drift correction of magnetic resonance CEST imaging, and a medium and an imaging device. The method comprises the following steps: firstly, in the frequency drift correction module, exciting a target slice by using a small flip-angle radio-frequency pulse, and acquiring a single line of free induction decay signals or two lines of non-phase encoding gradient echo signals; secondly, respectively calculating a value of the main magnetic field frequency drift according to phase information and an acquisition time of the single line of free induction decay signals or the two lines of non-phase encoding gradient echo signals; then adjusting the center frequency of the magnetic resonance device in real time according to the calculated value of the main magnetic field frequency drift, and achieving the real-time correction of main magnetic field frequency drift; and finally, performing CEST imaging.

Abstract: Vacuum systems for epoxy mounting of material samples are disclosed. In some examples, a vacuum system may be a castable and/or cold mounting vacuum system that facilitates mounting and/or encapsulation of material samples in epoxy resin under low, vacuum, and/or near vacuum pressure. In some examples, the vacuum system may comprise a flow control device configured to control epoxy flow through a dispensing tube that connects to a hollow vacuum chamber. In some examples, the vacuum chamber may have an opening encircled by a rim sandwiched between upper and lower portions of a sealing ring. A movable lid may be configured to press down on the upper portion of the sealing ring when in a closed position, so as to seal the opening.

Abstract: Refresh requests are received by a data source that each request a snapshot of current members of one of a plurality of dynamically changing groups and dynamically changing rules corresponding to such group. Thereafter, the data source queues the received plurality of refresh requests for selective execution or deletion into a new request queue. In addition, real-time execution of refresh jobs are initiated for all of queued refresh requests if a number of refresh requests in both of the new request queue and a waiting requests queue is below a pre-defined threshold. Alternatively, a job framework schedules execution of task jobs for a subset of the queued requests in the new request queue and the waiting requests queue if certain conditions are met.
