Whole body MRI magnet with high field
The technique of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a diagnostic tool for research and neuroscience. Its evolution led to instruments for whole body operating at very high field from 0.5 to 1.5 tesla for medical examinations and 3 to 5 tesla for research instruments.
Objectives
Neurospin project aims to develop a centre with 4 MRI systems:
o Clinic Research : MRI 3T and 7T (Siemens)
o Pre Clinic Research : MRI 17T, small aperture (Bruker)
o Clinic Research : MRI 11.
