INTRODUCTION<\/strong><\/h4>\n

From the first full-body scanner in 1977 to the present day, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology has evolved significantly, moving from stationary equipment to portable solutions. Non-magnetic coaxial connectors play a key role in this advancement. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

USE OF RF COILS
\n<\/strong><\/h4>\n

In MRI systems, RF (Radio Frequency) coils can be:<\/p>\n

Volumetric coils<\/u> for whole-body imaging.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nSurface coils<\/u> for imaging specific areas of the body.
\n Multi-channel coils can have up to 32 surface coils.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The coils are subjected to a magnetic field inside the MRI equipment.
\n Non-magnetic connectors are used to transmit the radiofrequency signals received by the patient coils to the MRI system.
\n Surface coils collect the magnetic signal.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Coaxial cables and connectors transmit the radio frequency signal.
\n The coaxial cables connect to a common input board, connected to the MRI system via a multi-coaxial backbone cable.\"\"<\/p>\n

ADVANTAGES OF NON-MAGNETIC CONNECTORS<\/b><\/h4>\n
    \n
  • They allow a homogeneous magnetic field, which translates into high-resolution images and a better signal-to-noise ratio.<\/li>\n
  • Low magnetic susceptibility, avoiding distortions, shadows or spots in the images.<\/li>\n
  • Completely \u201ctransparent\u201d to the magnetic field.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    \"\"<\/p>\n

    EXPERIENCE AND LEADERSHIP<\/h4>\n

    Radiall was one of the first manufacturers to produce high quality guaranteed non-magnetic coaxial connectors.
    \nSince 1998 it has supplied millions of units, including:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Non-magnetic coaxial connectors.<\/li>\n
    • Non-magnetic cable assemblies.<\/li>\n
    • Multi-port and mixed-contact assemblies.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      SPECIALIZED MANUFACTURING PROCESS<\/h4>\n
        \n
      1. Rigorous selection of raw materials.<\/li>\n
      2. Dedicated production tools.<\/li>\n
      3. Quality controls at every critical stage.<\/li>\n
      4. Careful packaging and shipping.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

        NO MAGNETISM GUARANTEE ON OUR CONNECTORS<\/h4>\n
          \n
        • The relative distortion of a 1.5 T magnetic field generated by a non-magnetic connector must be less than 5*10 -7<\/sup> (0.5 ppm) at a distance of 10 mm from the connector surface.<\/li>\n
        • Minimal distortion of the magnetic field, the level of magnetic susceptibility (~10 -5<\/sup> ) is very low.<\/li>\n
        • Quality control at every critical step of the process.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
