The disclosure relates to a radio-based physiological acquisition system for an RF-shielded room comprising a peripheral acquisition unit with a peripheral transmitter, a peripheral control unit, and a door sensor unit. The door sensor unit is configured to determine an opening status of a door in an RF shield around the RF-shielded room. The peripheral acquisition unit is configured to switch off the peripheral transmitter depending on the opening status of the door, e.g. when the door is open.

A magnet suitable for use in a Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) system. The magnet includes a magnet body having a bore extending therethrough along an axis of the body and a primary coil structure having at least four primary coils positioned along the axis. A first end coil is adjacent a first end of the bore of the magnet and a second end coil is adjacent a second end of the magnet. The first end coil and the second end coil are spaced apart by no more than 1000 mm and an imaging region produced by the primary coils is of a disk-type.

An electric circuit arrangement for energizing a magnet of a magnetic resonance imaging facility includes a first circuit part, a second circuit part and a control facility. In an embodiment, the first circuit part is designed to generate a direct voltage as an DC link voltage from an alternating voltage and the second circuit part is designed as a current source fed by the DC link voltage. The second circuit part includes a down converter controllable by the control facility, a transformer switchable by the control facility and a rectifier. A primary current is generatable from the DC link voltage via the down converter. The primary current is feedable by a switching facility, switched by the control facility into a primary side of the transformer, and a secondary current for energizing the magnet is generatable via the rectifier connected to a secondary side of the transformer.

The present disclosure provides a biomagnetic field sensor system for diagnostic evaluation of a cardiac condition of an individual. The biomagnetic field sensor system may comprise an array of biomagnetic field sensors configured to sense an electromagnetic field associated with a heart of the individual and generate electromagnetic field data therefrom; a computer processor coupled to the array of biomagnetic field sensors; a memory configured to store the electromagnetic field data generated by the array of biomagnetic field sensors; and a non-transitory computer-readable medium encoded with a computer program including instructions that, when executed by the computer processor, cause the computer processor to receive the electromagnetic field data, and generate a diagnostic evaluation of a cardiac condition of the individual based at least in part on an analysis of the electromagnetic field data.

An electromagnet assembly has an inner magnet, an outer magnet, arranged around the inner magnet with an annular region extending between the inner magnet and the outer magnet, and a number of support elements extending through the annular region and dividing the annular region into a number of annular segments. The support elements are distributed in the annular region so as to form a small annular segment and a large annular segment.
