  1. 604. (I) Noble gas MRI: A Decade of Progress Towards Clinical Translation
    Prof. Alexei Ouriadov (The University of Western Ontario)

    Physics in Medicine and Biology / Physique en médecine et en biologie (DPMB-DPMB)
    Invited Speaker / Conférencier(ère) invité(e)

    Inhaled hyperpolarized gas lung MRI was proven to be useful for the observation and treatment planning of several pulmonary diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, asthma, COVID-19 and lung cancer. The combined economic burden of COPD and asthma in Canada, Ontario being $5.7 billion (2011). While these statistics are alarming, they don’t fully reflect the impact on economic...

    Accurately targeting specific regions of interest in the brain is pivotal for the success of neurosurgical procedures. For example, the outcome of brain tumor resection is improved dramatically when surgeons are better able to define surgical borders. Interventional MRI (iMRI) helps reduce the risk of damaging critical areas of the brain and makes it possible to confirm a successful resection...

  3. 284. Direct current coil designs for a portable magnetic resonance scanner
    Ms Jordyn Matthews (University of Windsor)

    Physics in Medicine and Biology / Physique en médecine et en biologie (DPMB-DPMB)
    Oral Competition (Undergraduate Student) / Compétition orale (Étudiant(e) du 1er cycle)

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a powerful non-invasive imaging technique with high resolution and excellent soft tissue contrast. However, access to MRI is limited by the high instrument cost and high maintenance cost. Current scanners cannot be easily relocated because of their size and weight. A low cost, portable scanner will enable point-of-care diagnosis as well as other industrial...

  4. 374. Optimizing Radiofrequency Coils for Single-Sided Portable Magnetic Resonance
    Ms Doris Rusu (University of Windsor)
    09/06/2021, 13:25
    Physics in Medicine and Biology / Physique en médecine et en biologie (DPMB-DPMB)
    Oral not-in-competition (Graduate Student) / Orale non-compétitive (Étudiant(e) du 2e ou 3e cycle)

    Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is an imaging modality that offers superior soft tissue contrast without ionizing radiation. MRI requires a static magnetic field and a radiofrequency (RF) magnetic field. The static magnetic field is usually provided by a superconducting magnet, where the high cost limits its accessibility. A portable magnetic resonance device based on a permanent magnet is...
