Function and Applications

Fully functional Magnetic Resonance Tomograph (MRT) for teaching purposes, covering all aspects from the basic principles of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) to the high-resolution 2D and 3D MR imaging (MRI). It provides a comprehensive education experience  by training with clinically relevant measuring procedures, high resolution MR imaging (2D, 3D), live visualisation of data, realtime control of experimental parameters, determination of Larmor frequency,   T1/T2 measurements, all MR parameters accessible, measurement of a multitude of samples with a diameter of up to one centimeter, software-driven didactical approach and suitable for a wide range of experiments.
