  • Patent number: 6609015
    Abstract: An analysis apparatus including a spectroscopic analysis apparatus comprises an excitation system and a monitoring system. The excitation system emits an excitation beam to excite a target region during an excitation period. The monitoring system emits a monitoring beam to image the target region during a monitoring period. The excitation period and the monitoring period substantially overlap. Hence the target region is imaged together with the excitation, and an image is formed displaying both the target region and the excitation area. On the basis of this image, the excitation beam can be very accurately aimed at the target region.

  • Patent number: 6556010
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system is provided with a system of emission antennas,: for example, emission coils, for generating RF excitation pulses. The RF excitation pulses generate magnetic resonance signals from an object to be examined. The system of emission antennas has a spatially inhomogeneous emission profile. The inhomogeneous emission profile is used for the partial spatial encoding of the magnetic resonance signals in addition to the encoding on the basis of magnetic gradient fields.

  • Publication number: 20020011845
    Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system is provided with a system of emission antennae (13), for example, emission coils, for generating RF excitation pulses. Such RF excitation pulses generate magnetic resonance signals from an object to be examined. The system of emission antennae has a spatially inhomogeneous emission profile. The inhomogeneous emission profile is used for the partial spatial encoding of the magnetic resonance signals in addition to the encoding on the basis of magnetic gradient fields. The magnetic resonance image is reconstructed on the basis of the inhomogeneous emission profile.
