Abstract: A method of operation for a magnetic resonance imaging suite. A power supply of magnetic resonance injector system receives electrical power from an AC power outlet, both of which are located outside of a shielded room of the magnetic resonance imaging suite. Electrical power from the power supply of the magnetic resonance injector system is conveyed (via an appropriate power connection) into the shielded room of the magnetic resonance imaging suite and to a component (e.g., a power head) of the magnetic resonance injector system located inside the shielded room. While this electrical power is being conveyed, radio frequency energy emitted from the power connection is being filtered.

Abstract: A remotely powered magnetic resonance (NR) contrast media injector eliminates the use of batteries to power a power head in a shielded magnet room thereby eliminating inconvenient and costly charging and replacing of batteries. In particular, a power supply regulates and converts electrical power from a standard utility AC outlet available outside of the shielded magnet room to one or more forms of electrical power for supplying a power control for a power head inside the shielded magnet room. Advantageously, the power supply increases flexibility and convenience by using the same number of electrical cables as existing systems and by readily retrofitting existing battery-powered injector system that use a power control with battery receptacles.
