Machine Opening artifact
Neil,

I think you're talking about the edges of the shimmed volume of the magnet, or the coil.

Magnets are shimmed to a specific volume in the field (every model magnet is different). When you attempt to scan an object that reaches the edge of this volume you will see distortion from imaging the unshimmed area of the magnet.

Also shimming large objects that exceed the range of the receiver portion of the coil will cause distortions.

Hopefully this answers your question?

Good Luck,
Dan McGuan

3T imaging parameters
At 3T the T1 time is longer (so the TR should also be longer) and the T2 time is shorter (TE can be shorter). However, when we got a 3T machine we tested different TR and TE's and found out that in practice the useful range don't has a big difference from that of a 1.5T MR system.
The contrast looks a bit different - that's normal.
In addition, ask the manufacturer.
There are a lot of other parameters that affect the contrast in 3T.

Hope this will help

3T imaging parameters
Hi
Am looking for the ranges of acceptable TR and TE's for standard spin echo and gradient echo sequences on a 3T.
Does anyone know these or tell me where I can find this info?

Temperature Monitoring
The ideal solution for temperature monitoring during MRI is by using a fibre optic temperature monitoring system.

Fibre optic has inherent distinctive advantages as they are intrinsically safe, 100% immunity to EMI and RFI hence, the temperature reading is reliable.

They are a few manufacturers for this type of system with varying price range but one thing to note is to find out if the system is suitable for human physiological use. Most systems have not gained FDA or other regulations approvals for clinical use.

System and sensor accuracy, repeatability and packaging are also important factors to keep note of.

Brain Protocol
Hi Oscar,
depending of the indication (tumor, stroke, haemorrhage, epilepsy, inflammation, malformation....) different sequences are useful for brain MRI.
A protocol for a wide range of indications: sagittal T2, coronal Flair, transversal DWI and transversal T1 without and with contrast medium. In case of a result a second plane of a T1 sequence after contrast e.g. coronal is recommended.
