A Single Magnet Fast Field-Cycling MRI System with Detection at 0.5T

We are studying the unique contrast that is available from the variation of proton relaxation in different magetic field strengths. This is accessable through the use of fast field cycling magnet systems which can switch form zero field to 0.5 T, and anywhere in between, in 15 ms.
