  • Patent number: 10088534
    Abstract: A measurement device for magnetic resonance applications includes, in a measurement case: a first sensor for measuring radiofrequency magnetic fields; a second sensor for measuring magnetic field gradients; and a third sensor for measuring the radiofrequency electric field; and a stage for converting the electric signals delivered by the different measurement sensors into light signals. The device also in a controller for controlling and processing the signals, connected to the stage for conditioning the measurement case via a beam for transmitting light signals. The controller includes a stage for converting light signals into electric signals delivered by the sensors.

  • Publication number: 20050043612
    Abstract: The universal connector/receiver device for a nuclear magnetic resonance imager (1) of the invention is provided with at least one radiofrequency transmitter coil (5) and with at least one standard radiofrequency receiver coil (6). According to the invention, the device comprises at least one independent radiofrequency receiver coil (14) adapted to the shape and/or size of an item to be investigated, for the purpose of transforming an electromagnetic signal induced by nuclear magnetic resonance into an electrical signal, said independent radiofrequency receiver coil (14) being connected to a receiver coupling loop (20) serving to provide magnetic coupling with the standard radiofrequency receiver coil (6).
