What is the difference between CT and MR*** vibration?

I first say a few words, CT imaging is based on X-rays, the use of computer technology, so that the plane overlap of the X-image can be clear a plane by plane scanning. Magnetic *** vibration is the atomic nucleus in a strong magnetic field *** vibration of the signal obtained, and then after the image reconstruction obtained, it can be in the human body in all planes of imaging. To put it bluntly, its imaging is related to the number of protons in the scanning area. The difference between them is mainly the principle, equipment, its imaging characteristics, examination techniques, image analysis and diagnosis, and their clinical applications.

Basic principles of CT, CT imaging process

X-ray imaging is the use of the body's selective absorption of X-rays, when the X-rays through the human body after the formation of fluorescent screen or film images of tissues and organs, CT imaging is also similar to it.

A CT scan is a 360-degree, cross-sectional scan of a highly collimated X-ray beam around a part of the body being examined. Examination of the bed pan, X-ray from different directions to irradiate the patient, through the body of the X-ray beam due to part of the photons are absorbed by the body and attenuation, unabsorbed photons penetrate the body and then collimated by the detector after receiving. The detector accepts the X-rays with different strengths and weaknesses after passing through the body, and converts them into self-signals to be collected by the data acquisition system (DAS). A large number of received analog signal information through the analog-to-digital (A/D) converter converted to digital signals into an electronic computer for processing operations. After the initial processing of the original data acquisition (raw data), the original data after the convolution, filtering process, and then called the original data after filtering (6lteredrawdata). By the digital-to-analog (D/A) converter through the different gray scale in the display to obtain the part of the cross-section of the anatomical structure of the image, i.e., CT cross-sectional image.

Thus, CT examination is a response to the distribution of human tissue structure of the digital image, fundamentally overcoming the conventional X-ray examination image before and after the overlap of the defects, so that the medical diagnostic imaging examination has made a qualitative leap.

The basic principle of CT imaging

Usually, the strength of the ray signal received by the detector depends on the density of the tissues in the cross-section of the human body at the site. Dense tissues, such as bone absorb more X-rays and the detector receives a weaker signal; less dense tissues, such as fat and hollow organs absorb fewer X-rays and the detector obtains a stronger signal. This different tissues on the X-ray absorption value of different properties can be used to tissue absorption coefficient μ to express, so the detector received by the signal strength reflects the human body tissue different μ value. CT utilizes the attenuation characteristics of X-rays after they penetrate the body as the basis for diagnosing disease.

The attenuation of X-rays after penetration into the human body follows the exponential attenuation law I=I0e-μd.

Where: I is the X-ray intensity attenuated by absorption through the human body; I0 is the intensity of the incident X-rays; μ is the linear absorption coefficient of the tissues that receive the X-ray irradiation; and d is the thickness of the human body tissues at the examined site.

The absorption coefficients of the examined level of the human tissue are listed by electronic computer operations and distributed in the raster array of the synthetic image, i.e., the squares (array elements) of the matrix. Each element of the matrix is equivalent to an image point on the reconstructed image, called a pixel, and the CT imaging process is the process of finding the attenuation coefficient of each pixel. If the pixel is smaller and the number of detectors is larger, the attenuation coefficient measured by the computer will be more and more accurate, and the reconstructed image will be clearer. Currently, the matrix of the CT machine is 256 × 256, 512 × 512, the product of which is the number of pixels contained in each matrix

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging (NMRI) of a longitudinal view of the human brain

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging (NMI) is a process by which the computer measures the attenuation coefficients for a number of detectors. Magnetic Resonance Imaging (NMRI), also known as spin imaging, or magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), utilizes nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to visualize the human brain in longitudinal sections. MRI, also known as Magnetic Resonance Imaging, utilizes the principle of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), which is based on the different attenuation of the energy released in different structural environments within a material, and detects the electromagnetic waves emitted through the application of an external gradient magnetic field to determine the location and type of nuclei that make up the object, which can then be mapped out into a structural image of the object's internal structure.

Using this technique to image the internal structure of the human body produces a revolutionary medical diagnostic tool. The application of rapidly changing gradient magnetic fields greatly accelerates the speed of nuclear magnetic **** vibration imaging, making the application of this technology in clinical diagnosis and scientific research a reality, and greatly promoting the rapid development of medicine, neurophysiology and cognitive neuroscience.

From the discovery of the phenomenon of nuclear magnetic **** vibration to the maturity of MRI technology in this period of several decades, the field of research on nuclear magnetic **** vibration in three fields (physics, chemistry, physiology or medicine) has been awarded six Nobel Prizes, which is sufficient to illustrate the importance of this field and its derived technology.

Overview of principles

Magnetic **** vibration imaging is a biomagnetic nuclear spin imaging technique that has developed rapidly with the development of computer technology, electronic circuitry, and superconductor technology. Doctors take into account the patient's fear of "nuclear", so often this technology is called magnetic **** vibration imaging. It is the use of magnetic fields and radiofrequency pulses to make the human tissue into the movement of the hydrogen nucleus (i.e., H +) chapter action to produce radiofrequency signals, computer processing and imaging.

Atomic nucleus in motion, absorption and atomic nucleus in motion frequency of the same radio frequency pulse, that is, the frequency of the applied alternating magnetic field is equal to the Larmor frequency, the atomic nucleus on the occurrence of *** vibration absorption, after removing the radio frequency pulse, the atomic nucleus of the magnetic moment and the absorbed energy in the form of part of an electromagnetic wave emitted, known as *** vibration emission. The process of *** vibration absorption and *** vibration emission is called "nuclear magnetic *** vibration".

The "nucleus" of MRI refers to the nucleus of the hydrogen atom, because the human body is made up of about 70% water, and MRI relies on hydrogen atoms in water. When an object is placed in a magnetic field, it is irradiated with the appropriate electromagnetic waves to make it *** vibrate, and then the electromagnetic waves it releases are analyzed to learn the location and type of nuclei that make up the object, from which precise three-dimensional images of the object's interior can be drawn.

[edit]

Mathematical operations

An atomic nucleus is positively charged and has spin motion, and its spin motion will certainly produce a magnetic moment, called the nuclear magnetic moment. Studies have shown that the nuclear magnetic moment μ is proportional to the spin angular momentum S of the nucleus, which is

The formula γ is a proportionality coefficient, known as the atomic nucleus of the spin ratio. In the external magnetic field, the spatial orientation of the nuclear spin angular momentum is quantized, and its projection in the direction of the external magnetic field can be expressed as

m is the nuclear spin quantum number. Based on the relationship between the nuclear magnetic moment and the spin angular momentum, the orientation of the nuclear magnetic moment in the external magnetic field is also quantized, and its projection value in the direction of the magnetic field can be expressed as

For different nuclei, m is taken as an integer or a half-integer, respectively. In the external magnetic field, nuclei with magnetic moments have corresponding energies, the values of which can be expressed as

Where B is the magnetic induction strength. It can be seen that the energy of the nucleus in the external magnetic field is also quantized. Due to the interaction of magnetic moment and magnetic field, the spin energy is split into a series of discrete energy levels, the difference between the two adjacent energy levels ΔE = γhB. irradiate the nucleus with electromagnetic radiation at the appropriate frequency, if the photon energy hν of electromagnetic radiation is exactly the difference between the two adjacent nuclear energy levels ΔE, then the nucleus absorbs the photon, and the frequency of nuclear magnetic **** vibration occurs in the frequency conditions are:

In the formula ν is the frequency, ω is the angular frequency. For a definite nucleus, the spin ratio γ can be determined precisely. It can be seen that by determining the frequency ν of the radiated field at the time of nuclear magnetic *** vibration, the magnetic induction can be determined; conversely, if the magnetic induction is known, the frequency of nuclear *** vibration can be determined.

System composition

[edit]

NMR experimental setup

The nuclear magnetic **** vibration is achieved by using the method of adjusting the frequency. Electromagnetic waves are emitted from the coil to the sample, and the modulating oscillator serves to make the frequency of the radio frequency electromagnetic waves vary continuously around the sample *** vibration frequency. When the frequency coincides with the nuclear magnetic *** vibration frequency, the output of the radio frequency oscillator will appear an absorption peak, which can be displayed on the oscilloscope, at the same time by the frequency meter instantly read out the value of *** vibration frequency at this time. Nuclear magnetic *** vibration spectrometer is specially used to observe the nuclear magnetic *** vibration of the instrument, mainly by the magnet, probe and spectrometer three major components. The function of the magnet is to produce a constant magnetic field; probe placed between the magnetic poles, used to detect the nuclear magnetic *** vibration signal; spectrometer is the *** vibration signal amplification and processing and display and record down.

Components of an MRI system

[edit]

Magnet system

Static magnetic field: superconducting magnets currently used in clinical practice, with field strengths ranging from 0.5 to 4.0 T, with 1.5 T and 3.0 T being common, and a homogeneous shim coil assisting in achieving a high degree of uniformity.

Gradient field: Used to generate and control the gradient in the magnetic field for spatial encoding of the NMR signal. This system has three sets of coils that generate gradient fields in the x, y, and z directions, and the magnetic fields of the coil sets are superimposed to obtain gradient fields in any direction.

[edit]

Radiofrequency system

Radiofrequency (RF) generator: generates a short, strong RF field, which is applied to the sample in pulses, causing NMR phenomena to occur in the hydrogen nuclei in the sample.

Radio Frequency (RF) Receiver: Receives the NMR signal, amplifies it and enters the image processing system.

[edit]

Computer image reconstruction system

Signals sent by the RF receiver are converted to mathematical signals by an A/D converter, and according to the correspondence with the various voxels of the observation level, they are processed by a computer to produce the level image data, which is then added to the image display by a D/A converter, and the image is displayed according to the magnitude of the NMR with different gray scale The image of the desired observation level is displayed in different gray levels according to the size of the NMR.

Overview of the principle

Hydrogen nuclei are the preferred nuclei for imaging the human body: various tissues in the human body contain a large amount of water and hydrocarbons, so the NMR*** vibration of hydrogen nuclei is highly flexible and has a strong signal, which is the reason why hydrogen nuclei are preferred as an imaging element in the human body.The intensity of the NMR signal is related to the density of hydrogen nuclei in the sample, and the ratio of water content among various tissues in the human body is different, i.e. the number of nuclei contains hydrogen NMR signal intensity is different from the number of hydrogen nuclei in the human body, using this difference as a characteristic quantity to separate various tissues, which is the NMR **** vibration image of the density of hydrogen nuclei. Between different tissues of the human body, normal tissue and the lesion tissue in that tissue between the hydrogen nuclei density, relaxation time T1, T2 three parameters of the difference, is MRI used for clinical diagnosis of the most important physical basis.

When a radiofrequency pulse signal is applied, the hydrogen nucleus changes its nuclear state, and after the radiofrequency has passed, the hydrogen nucleus returns to its initial energy state, and the electromagnetic wave generated by the *** vibration is emitted. Small differences in the vibration of the nucleus can be accurately detected, and after further computer processing, it is possible to obtain a three-dimensional image of the chemical composition of the reactive tissue, from which we can obtain information that includes differences in the water content of the tissue as well as the movement of water molecules. In this way, pathological changes can be recorded.

2/3 of the body's weight is water, and such a high percentage is the basis for magnetic **** vibration imaging to be widely used in medical diagnostics. The water in organs and tissues in the human body is not the same, and the pathology of many diseases can lead to changes in the water pattern, which can be reflected by the magnetic **** vibration image.

The images obtained by MRI are very clear and detailed, which greatly improves the diagnostic efficiency of doctors and avoids the need for a thoracotomy or cesarean section for diagnostic surgery. Because MRI does not use harmful X-rays and allergy-inducing contrast agents, there is no damage to the human body.

MRI can be used to image various parts of the human body from multiple angles and planes, with high resolution, and can more objectively and concretely display anatomical tissues and neighboring relationships within the body, allowing for better localization and characterization of the lesions. It is of great value for the diagnosis of systemic diseases, especially for the diagnosis of early tumors.

[edit]

Advantages of magnetic **** vibration imaging

Compared with ordinary X-rays, which won the Nobel Prize for Physics in 1901, or computerized tomography (CT), which won the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1979, the biggest advantage of magnetic **** vibration imaging is that it is one of the few safe, fast, and reliable methods that do not cause any harm to the human body. It is a safe, fast and accurate clinical diagnostic method that does not cause any harm to the human body. Nowadays, at least 60 million cases are examined by MRI every year worldwide. Specifically, there are the following points:

No free radiation damage to the human body;

A variety of parameters can be used for imaging, and multiple imaging parameters can provide a wealth of diagnostic information, which makes medical diagnosis and the study of metabolism and function in the human body convenient and effective. For example, the T1 values of hepatitis and cirrhosis become larger, while the T1 values of hepatocellular carcinoma are even larger, and a T1-weighted image can be made to distinguish benign tumors from malignant tumors in the liver;

The desired profile can be freely selected by adjusting the magnetic field.

The magnetic field can be adjusted to freely select the desired profile, which can obtain images of areas that are inaccessible or difficult to access by other imaging techniques. For intervertebral discs and spinal cord, sagittal, coronal, and cross-sectional imaging can be performed to visualize nerve roots, spinal cord, and ganglia. It can obtain three-dimensional images of the brain and spinal cord, unlike CT (which can only obtain a section perpendicular to the long axis of the body), which scans layer by layer and may miss lesions;

It is capable of diagnosing cardiac lesions, which is difficult for CT because of its slow scanning speed;

It has excellent resolution of soft tissues. It is superior to CT for bladder, rectum, uterus, vagina, bones, joints, and muscles;

In principle, all nuclear elements with non-zero spin can be used for imaging, such as hydrogen (1H), carbon (13C), nitrogen (14N and 15N), and phosphorus (31P).

Disadvantages and possible hazards of MRI

While MRI is not fatal to the patient, it still causes some discomfort to the patient. Necessary measures should be taken to minimize this negative impact before MRI diagnosis. Its disadvantages are:

Like CT, MRI is also an anatomical imaging diagnosis, many lesions are still difficult to diagnose by MRI alone, unlike endoscopy, which can obtain both imaging and pathological diagnosis;

The examination of the lungs is not superior to X-ray or CT, and the examination of liver, pancreas, adrenal glands, and prostate is not superior to CT, but the cost is much more expensive;

More importantly, it can be used to diagnose the lungs.

It is not as good as endoscopy for gastrointestinal lesions;

The scanning time is long and the spatial resolution is not good enough;

Because of the strong magnetic field, MRI can not be applied to special patients, such as those who have a magnetic metal in the body or a pacemaker.

Factors that can cause harm from MRI systems include the following:

Strong static magnetic fields: in the presence of ferromagnetic material, either embedded in the patient or within the magnetic field, can be a risk factor;

Time-varying gradient fields: these can be induced in subjects to produce electric fields that excite nerves or muscles. Peripheral nerve excitation is the upper indicator of the safety of gradient fields. At sufficient intensity, peripheral nerve excitation (such as tingling or percussion) can be produced, and even cardiac excitation or ventricular fibrillation can be induced;

Radiofrequency (RF) thermogenic effects: The large-angle RF fields used in MRI focusing or measurement processes emit electromagnetic energy that is converted to heat in the patient's tissues, causing the tissue temperature to rise.

Thermoactive effects of RF need to be further explored, and clinical scanners have a different name for RF energy. The thermogenic effect of RF needs to be further explored, and the clinical scanner has the so-called "specific absorption rate" (SAR) limit for RF energy;

Noise: The various noises generated during the operation of MRI may cause hearing damage in some patients;

Toxicity and side-effects of contrast agents : the contrast agents currently in use are mainly gadolinium-containing compounds, with a side-effect incidence of 2%-4%.

[edit]

Application of MRI in the field of chemistry

The application of MRI in the field of chemistry is not as extensive as in the field of medicine, mainly because of technical difficulties and difficulties in imaging materials, and is currently used in the following areas:

In the field of polymer chemistry, such as the study of carbon-fiber-reinforced epoxy resins, the study of solid-state reactions in spatial directionality study, study of solvent diffusion in polymers, polymer vulcanization and homogeneity study of elastomers, etc.;

In metal ceramics, to detect the presence of sand holes in ceramic products through the study of porous structure;

In rocket fuels, for the detection of defects in the solid fuel as well as the distribution of fillers, plasticizers, and propellants;

In petrochemistry In petrochemistry, the main focus is on the study of the distribution state and circulation of fluids in rocks as well as the study of reservoir description and enhanced oil recovery mechanisms.

[edit]

Other advances in magnetic **** vibrational imaging

Nuclear magnetic **** vibrational analysis technique is to analyze the molecular structure and properties of a substance through the determination of characteristic parameters of the nuclear magnetic **** vibrational spectral lines (e.g., spectral widths, spectral contour shapes, spectral areas, and spectral positions, etc.). It can be a completely non-destructive detection method without destroying the internal structure of the sample under test. At the same time, it has a very high resolution and accuracy, and can be used for the measurement of the nucleus is also more, all of which are better than other measurement methods. Therefore, nuclear magnetic **** vibration technology has gained wide application in physics, chemistry, medicine, petrochemistry, archaeology and so on.

Magnetic *** vibration microscopy (MR microscopy, MRM/μMRI) is a slightly later development of MRI technology, MRM highest spatial resolution is 4 μm, can be close to the level of the general optical microscope like. MRM has been very commonly used as an animal model of disease and drug research.

In vivo MR spectroscopy (MRS) is the ability to determine the NMR spectrum of a specific part of an animal or a human body in order to directly identify and analyze its chemical composition.

Contributions of Nobel laureates

On October 6, 2003, the Karolinska Institutet School of Medicine in Sweden announced that the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine had been awarded to American chemist Paul C. Lauterbur and British physicist Peter Mansfield Mansfield for their groundbreaking achievements in the field of nuclear magnetic **** vibrational imaging techniques used within the field of medical diagnosis and research.

Lauterburgh's contribution was the introduction of gradients into a magnetic field by attaching an inhomogeneous magnetic field within the main magnetic field, thus creating a visual two-dimensional structural image of the internal structure of matter that is not visible using other technical means. He described how a gradient magnet could be added to the main magnet, and then cross sections of test tubes filled with ordinary water immersed in heavy water could be seen. There is no other imaging technique that can distinguish images between ordinary water and heavy water. By introducing a gradient magnetic field, it is possible to change the frequency of the nuclear magnetic **** vibration electromagnetic waves point by point, and by analyzing the emitted electromagnetic waves, it is possible to determine the source of the signal.

Mansfield further developed the theory concerning the use of additional gradient magnetic fields in stable magnetic fields, advancing their practical application. His discovery of a mathematical analysis of magnetic **** vibration signals laid the groundwork for moving the method from theory to application. This led to magnetic ****vibration imaging becoming a realistic and viable method of clinical diagnosis a decade later. He utilized gradients in the magnetic field to more accurately show differences in *** vibration. He demonstrated how to effectively and rapidly analyze detected signals and convert them into images. Mansfield also proposed that extremely rapid gradient changes could yield instantaneous images, a technique known as planar echo-planar imaging (EPI), which became the mainstay of functional magnetic *** vibration imaging (functional MRI, fMRI) research that began to flourish in the 1990s.

Raymond Damadian's "Devices and Methods for the Detection of Cancerous Tissues" is noteworthy for the groundbreaking contributions to the theory of superconductors and superfluids made by the 2003 Nobel Laureates in Physics, which provided the theoretical basis for the development of the fMRI scanner by two of the scientists who were awarded the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. vibration scanners, which provided the theoretical foundation that paved the way for nuclear magnetic **** vibration imaging technology. As a result of their theoretical work, breakthroughs in MR*** vibration imaging technology have been made, making high-resolution images of the body's internal organs possible.

In addition, a full-page advertisement from Fonar appeared simultaneously in the New York Times and the Washington Post on October 10, 2003: "Raymond Damadian, who should share the 2003 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Without him, there would have been no nuclear magnetic **** vibration imaging." The accusation that the Nobel Prize committee had "falsified history" was widely disputed. In fact, the ownership of the invention of MRI has been debated for many years and is quite hotly contested. In the academic world, Damadian is seen as more of a businessman than a scientist.

Future prospects

How the human brain thinks has always been a mystery. And it is an important topic of concern for scientists. And functional brain imaging using MRI helps us to study the human mind at the in vivo and holistic level. One of the best samples is the study on whether the hands of blind children can replace their eyes. Normal people can see the blue sky and blue water, and then form images in the brain to form a mood, and the blind child who has never seen the world, can touch the words with his hands, and the words tell him about the world, can the blind child also "see" it? Through functional MRI, experts scan the brains of normal and blind children, and find that blind children also have good activation areas in the visual cortex of the brain, just like normal people. From this, we can tentatively conclude that blind children through cognitive education, the hand can replace the eyes "see" the outside world.

The research and application of fast scanning technology will shorten the scanning time of patients by classical MRI imaging methods from several minutes or ten minutes to a few milliseconds, so that the effect of organ movement on the image is negligible; MRI blood flow imaging, using the flow-vacancy effect to make the morphology of blood vessels on the MRI image vividly presented, so that it is possible to measure the direction of the flow of blood in the blood vessels and the flow rate; MRI spectral analysis can use a high magnetic field to analyze the blood flow in the blood vessels, so that it is possible to measure the direction of the blood flow in the blood vessels and the flow rate. Spectral analysis can use high magnetic fields to achieve the human body's local tissue spectral analysis technology, thus increasing the information to help diagnosis; brain function imaging, the use of high magnetic field **** vibration imaging to study the function of the brain and its mechanism of occurrence is the most important topic in brain science. There is reason to believe that MRI will develop into a thought reader.

The mid-20th century to the present, information technology and life sciences is the development of the two most active areas, experts believe that, as a combination of these two MRI technology, continue to micro and functional examination on the development of the mystery of life will play a greater role in revealing.
