Eddy current effects on a clinical 7T-68 cm bore scanner

Rolf Gruetter, Tobias Kober, Wietske Van der Zwaag, José Pedro Rebelo Ferreira Marques, Gunnar Krüger

Eddy currents induced by switching of magnetic field gradients can lead to distortions in short echo-time spectroscopy or diffusion weighted imaging. In small bore magnets, such as human head-only systems, minimization of eddy current effects is more deman ...

An analytical solution for the rotor eddy current losses in a slotless PM motor: the case of current layer excitation

Yves Perriard, Miroslav Markovic, Pierre-Daniel Pfister

We present an analytical solution for the induced eddy currents and the corresponding losses generated in the rotor of a slotless permanent magnet (PM) motor. The field excitation is a current layer placed at the stator interior surface. The solution is ba ...

A Haptic Interface with Motor/Brake System for Colonoscopy Simulation

Hannes Bleuler, Evren Samur, Lionel Flaction, Ulrich Spälter

Training for colonoscopy, which is the examination and treatment of the colon, is often performed on real patients once the physician has passed the novice level. This increases the risk to the patient and lengthens the procedure time. Since a decade ago, ...
