  • Patent number: 11696685
    Abstract: A method for non-invasive quantification of organ fat using a magnetic resonance approach includes: constructing a detection system; connecting a detection area; detection system startup; acquiring data; analyzing data; and performing horizontal data analysis. An external computer, a radio frequency (RF) subsystem, and a portable magnet module are used to construct a system for non-invasive quantification of organ fat based on low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR), which causes no damage, and achieves accurate and non-invasive quantification of organ fat. Specific pulse sequences are used to excite nuclear spin in a target region to generate LF-NMR, so as to achieve “one-click” detection, which is used for fast screening of related diseases such as non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). The system has accurate quantification, and is easy to operate without constraints of operator qualifications.

  • Publication number: 20230124702
    Abstract: A method for measuring a gradient field of a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) system based on a diffusion effect uses a non-uniform field magnet, an NMR spectrometer, a radio frequency (RF) power amplifier, an RF coil, and a standard quantitative phantom with known apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) and time constant for decay of transverse magnetization after RF-pulse (T2). A plurality of sets of signals are acquired by an NMR sequence with different diffusion-sensitive gradient durations or different echo spacings and the magnitude of the gradient field is calculated by fitting based on the plurality of sets of signals. The method does not require an additional dedicated magnetic field detection device, has a short measurement time, is easy to use with the NMR system, and is convenient to complete gradient field measurement at the installation site, thereby improving the installation and service efficiency of the NMR system.

  • Patent number: 8972191
    Abstract: Phase sensitive X-ray imaging methods provide substantially increased contrast over conventional absorption based imaging, and therefore new and otherwise inaccessible information. The use of gratings as optical elements in hard X-ray phase imaging overcomes some of the problems impairing the wider use of phase contrast in X-ray radiography and tomography. To separate the phase information from other contributions detected with a grating interferometer, a phase-stepping approach has been considered, which implies the acquisition of multiple radiographic projections. Here, an innovative, highly sensitive X-ray tomographic phase contrast imaging approach is presented based on grating interferometry, which extracts the phase contrast signal without the need of phase stepping. Compared to the existing phase step approach, the main advantage of this new method dubbed “reverse projection” is the significantly reduced delivered dose, without degradation of the image quality.
