Keywords: Low-Field MRI, Low-Field MRI
Motivation: Ultra-low MRI systems provide a reduced SNR.
Goal(s): Our goal is to improve the SNR by incorporating SQUID-based RF detection into the ULF MRI system.
Approach: We build a custom-made SQUID MRI system and acquire the first 2D image of a phantom as proof of concept.
Results: we successfully acquired a 2D image of a phantom in 4 hours with a resolution of 15×12.5 mm²
Impact: Striving for MRI accessibility, we develop a portable ultra-low field scanner using highly sensitive SQUID detection. Our first 2D image marks the initial stride toward achieving clinically competitive image quality.
