Research Abstract |
This study aims to establish the simultaneous measurement of MEG and MRI combined system by the passive and active sensing of SQUID. We are now developing a low field MRI system which can be integrated with the MEG system for small animals. This micro SQUID MEG system could detect femtotesla magnetic fields of epileptic spike and evoked potential in rat brains. The SQUID MRI could detect the T1 signal of water and lipid in low field magnetic field, furthermore clearly separate these two signals. This result leads to construct 2D imaging by low field MRI.
