Methods MALSE comprises a set of reed sensors, which activate in response to their exposure to a magnetic field. The activation/deactivation of reed sensors was examined by moving them in/out of the fringe field generated by 7TMR. Results The consistency with which individual reed sensors would activate at the same field strength was found to be 100% for the setup used. All of the reed switches investigated required a substantial drop in ambient magnetic field strength before they deactivated. Conclusions MALSE is a simple concept for alerting MRI staff to a ferromagnetic object being brought into fringe magnetic fields which exceeds MALSEs activation magnetic field. MALSE can easily be attached to ferromagnetic objects within the vicinity of a scanner, thus creating a barrier for hazardous situations induced by ferromagnetic parts which should not enter the vicinity of an MR-system to occur.

JF - Zeitschrift für Betriebswirtschaft N2 - Geld-zurück-Garantien erlangen in der Unternehmenspraxis eine immer größere Bedeutung, vor allem weil sie als probates Mittel zur Signalisierung hochwertiger Qualität angesehen werden – eine Annahme, die bislang wissenschaftlich ungeprüft geblieben ist. Vor diesem Hintergrund wird im vorliegenden Beitrag eine umfassende empirische Untersuchung der kaufverhaltensrelevanten Wirkungen dieses Marketinginstrumentes vorgenommen. Die Ergebnisse verdeutlichen zum einen, dass eine Geld-zurück-Garantie nur unter bestimmten Bedingungen als Qualitätssignal wirkt. Dies hängt neben der Art des Produktes (Erfahrungs- vs. Suchgut) insbesondere von der Ausprägung des für die Qualitätsbeurteilung besonders diagnostischen Merkmals Marke sowie von der Produktkenntnis der Konsumenten ab. Zum anderen zeigt sich aber auch, dass eine Geld-zurück-Garantie affektive Konsumentenreaktionen auslöst, die die Kaufabsicht von Konsumenten zusätzlich erhöhen können. Zusammenfassend stellen wir fest, dass eine Geld-zurück-Garantie – entgegen bisheriger Erwartungen aus der Praxis – nicht zwingend ein Qualitätsindikator ist, stattdessen entfaltet sie aber bisher unbeachtete affektive Wirkungen, die insbesondere auf ihre absichernde Funktion von etwaigen Fehlentscheidungen beim Kauf zurückzuführen sind.

Materials and Methods A four-element cardiac transceiver surface coil array was developed with two rectangular loops mounted on an anterior former and two rectangular loops on a posterior former. specific absorption rate (SAR) simulations were performed and a Burn:x-wiley:10531807:media:JMRI22451:tex2gif-stack-1 calibration method was applied prior to obtain 2D FLASH CINE (mSENSE, R = 2) images from nine healthy volunteers with a spatial resolution of up to 1 × 1 × 2.5 mm3. Results Tuning and matching was found to be better than 10 dB for all subjects. The decoupling (S21) was measured to be >18 dB between neighboring loops, >20 dB for opposite loops, and >30 dB for other loop combinations. SAR values were well within the limits provided by the IEC. Imaging provided clinically acceptable signal homogeneity with an excellent blood-myocardium contrast applying the Burn:x-wiley:10531807:media:JMRI22451:tex2gif-stack-2 calibration approach. Conclusion A four-channel cardiac transceiver coil array for 7T was built, allowing for cardiac imaging with clinically acceptable signal homogeneity and an excellent blood-myocardium contrast. Minor anatomic structures, such as pericardium, mitral, and tricuspid valves and their apparatus, as well as trabeculae, were accurately delineated.

Artifacts in the ECG trace and severe T-wave elevation might be mis-interpreted as R-waves. MHD being inherently sensitive to blood flow and blood velocity provides an alternative approach for cardiac gating, even in peripheral target areas far away from the commonly used upper torso positions of ECG electrodes. This feature would be very beneficial to address traveling time induced motion artifacts and trigger latency related issues raised by ECG-gated peripheral MR angiography. For all those reasons, this work proposes the use of MHD-trigger for cardiac gated MR.
