MRSO

Time-varying Gradient Magnetic Fields

QuestionAnswer
This is a set of imaging produced when the Z gradient is activated. Axial Imaging
This is a set of imaging produced when the Y gradient is activated. Coronal Imaging
The amount of time that the gradient coils can remain active. Duty Cycle
A pair of saddle electromagnetic coils are located on the right and left and anterior and posterior of the patient which produces strong magnetic fields from left to the right, and anterior to posterior. Golay Coil
The slope or amplitude of the gradient is activated. Gradient Steepness
A term used to describe the gradient activation in data acquisition. This can be described as the slice selection gradient, phase encoding gradient, and frequency encoding gradient. Logical Gradient
The torque is caused on the MR gantry as the gradient coils are activated. This produces the noises heard in MRI. Lorenz Force
Visually seeing flashing light when exposed to a changing magnetic field. This is caused by nerve stimulation described by Faraday's law of induction Magnetophosphenes
The largest amplitude was witnessed. Maximum Gradient Field
A ring of electromagnetic coils at the patient's foot and Head surrounding the gantry produced a strong gradient magnetic field from Head to foot. Maxwell Coil
This is a way to measure the amount of noise reduced by earplugs or headsets. Noise Reduction Rating
Uncontrollable movement of the eyes when exposed to a changing magnetic field. This is caused by nerve stimulation described by Faraday's law of induction. Nystagmus
When nerves are stimulated when exposed to a changing magnetic field, this is caused by nerve stimulation described by Faraday's law of induction. Peripheral Nerve Stimulation
The term is used to describe the spatial encoding of the gradient coils. For example, the X gradient produces sagittal images, the Y gradient produces coronal images, and the Z gradient produces axial images. Physical Gradient
The wobbling motion that hydrogen nuclei demonstrate. Precession
The period it takes for the gradients to reach the maximum sequence amplitude. Rise Time
This is a set of imaging produced when the X gradient is activated. Sagittal Imaging
The speed at which the gradient coils can change the gradient magnetic fields. Slew Rate

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
