7 T MRI

Magnetic resonance scanner with magnetic field 7 T MR Solutions) was installed in CAPI in May 2021.

The scanner is a compact instrument with a "cryogen-free" magnet dedicated for imaging of small laboratory rodents (mice and rats).

Basic technical parameters:

magnetic field 7 T
gradient system 600 mT/m
diameter of the usable measuring space 10 cm
2 transmit and 4 receive proton channels
X-nuclei channel for 19F and 31P
RF coils:

wholebody mouse coil (38 × 70 mm)
mouse head coil (20 × 18 mm)
wholebody rat coil (66 × 70 mm)
rat head coil (42 ×28 mm)

Additional equipment:

vital function monitoring system (breathing, ECG, temperature)
heated beds
Anesthetical inhalation unit
heating pad

Applications:

Wholebody anatomy imaging, high-resolution imaging in vivo
Oncology - imaging, volumetry of tumors, methastasis imaging, therapy efficiency monitoring
Neurology - brain, spine imaging, functional imaging
Cardiology - static and dynamic studies
Molecular and multimodal imaging (possibility to combine MR imaging with other imaging modalities - PET, SPECT etc.)
MR spekroscopy - metabolic diseases
Cell imaging and tracking
Non-proton (e.g., 19F) imaging and spectroscopy
