Research Abstract |
This research developed of non-magnetic composite wire materials for preventing artifacts in Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). The magnetic susceptibility and mechanical property of the composite wire with paramagnetic Zr and diamagnetic Ag were evaluated. The magnetic susceptibility of Zr/Ag composite wire noted almost 10% that of Ti, theartifact of MR image of Zr/Ag composite wire was decreased than Ti. Thus these Zr/Ag composite wire materials are useful for medical devices under MRI.
