  • Device and method for generating mechanical oscillations in an examination object using magnetic resonance elastography
    Patent number: 8305076
    Abstract: A device and method for producing mechanical oscillations in a research object using magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) with a membrane that can be set into periodic motion and a transmission element for the transmission of periodic motion of the membrane onto the research object, whereby the membrane is connected to the transmission element by means of a mounting medium in such a way that periodic motion of the membrane is transmitted over the mounting medium to the transmission element.
    Type: Grant

  • DEVICE AND PROCESS FOR MAGNETIC RESONANCE ELASTOGRAPHY (MRE)
    Publication number: 20110006767
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device to produce mechanical oscillations in a research object using magnetic resonance elastography (MRE) with a membrane that can be set into periodic motion (312) and a transmission element (4, 400) for the transmission of periodic motion of the membrane (312) onto the research object (1), whereby the membrane (312) is connected to the transmission element (4, 400) by means of a mounting medium (311, 320, 321, 322) in such a way that periodic motion of the membrane is transmitted over the mounting medium (311, 320, 321, 322) to the transmission element (4, 400). A second aspect relates to the invention of a device with a step motor to generate periodic motion and a transmission element for the transmission of the periodic motion of the step motor to the research object in order to generate mechanical oscillation therein.
