  • Method and apparatus for hazardous liquid detection
    Patent number: 7355402
    Abstract: A method for hazardous liquid detection within a container includes inducing a static magnetic field in the container, inducing a radio frequency magnetic field in the container at a frequency selected to excite nuclear magnetic resonance phenomena in liquids; detecting nuclear magnetic resonance signals from the container and analyzing the signals for presence of liquids above a threshold mass.
    Type: Grant

  • Magnetic resonance imaging method and apparatus for body composition analysis
    Patent number: 7343192
    Abstract: A method is disclosed for analyzing body composition. The method includes inducing a static magnetic field in the body. The static magnetic field has a known distribution along a longitudinal axis of the body. A radio frequency magnetic field is induced in the body. The radio frequency and a bandwidth thereof are selected to induce nuclear magnetic resonance phenomena in a selected axial segment along the body. Nuclear magnetic resonance phenomena are from the selected axial segment. Composition is determined from the magnetic resonance signals. The measurement may be repeated in different axial segments by changing the static field amplitude or a frequency of the RF magnetic field. In some embodiments, a gradient field is superimposed over the static field.

  • Apparatus and method for assessing body composition
    Publication number: 20080039708
    Abstract: A method for analyzing composition of a human body includes inducing a substantially homogeneous static magnetic field in the entire body. A substantially homogeneous radio frequency magnetic field is induced in the entire body so as to induce nuclear magnetic resonance effects in the body. Nuclear magnetic resonance signals emanating from the entire body are analyzed to determine body composition.
