Protons precess 42.6 Mz / T. B B The Gradient Coils alter B spatial localization or ΔB. Every electric field has a magnetic field... Any moving magnetic field generates an electrical current... Faraday s Law ydrogen nuclei are protons Protons have a positive net charge. This charge spins around the mass. 2. A moving magnetic field creates an electric field... S + Coil Spinning dipoles have local magnetic fields which will align with external magnetic fields. O A moving charge is an electrical current 1. Every electric field has a magnetic field The radiofrequency coil: 1. Creates B1 field with FM energy 2. Detects proton coherence in B - signal # protons aligned ~ Magnetic field strength (B). At 1.5Tesla, this is only 5 of every 1,,. 1 Tesla = 1, gauss. S N B + N
2 The proton spinning charge precesses or wobbles around the B axis due to Angular Momentum The tip of the axis is related to the magnetic gyric ratio (γ) The speed of the precession = Larmor Equation... f = (γ / 2π)B 42.6 Mz@1T Know B = know frequency... Know frequency= know B... B S + N B S + N electric field creates a B1 magnetic field which flips protons away from B... the "flip" is a perturbation...

More macromolecules = large # of stationary protons = shorter and shorter T2. T2 of protons is dominated by interactions with other water protons, etc. T2 is affected by diffusion, perfusion, water content... spin-spin relaxation. More water = large # mobile protons = less interaction = longer and longer T2. The spin- signal strength is related to T2 only... We collect this signal in SE imaging. 9 The Spin- forms at phase 18 The Determines the T2-weighting Longer = more T2 phase decay and less signal. Shorter = less phase loss and more signal. Longer = more T2-weighting.
