Researchers develop economical mobile MRI machine for brain disorders
In a new study, a researchers team from Hong Kong have developed a low cost, portable MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machine that does not need heavy and expensive shielding and is able to still diagnose brain disorders. "The MRI system we developed is a low cost, ultra-low-field 0.055 T MRI scanner which operates from standard AC wall power outlet only. Such scanner can be made low cost to...
