Magnetic resonance imaging: project planning and management of a superconductive M.R.I. installation
Abstract:
The planning and installation of a Superconductive Magnetic Resonance Imaging (M.R.I.) installation is described at the Royal Adelaide Hospital, Adelaide, South Australia. Tender specification, assessment of offers via criteria weighted analysis of technical and economic factors and the final recommendation for a 1.0 Tesla unit are discussed. Building and installation considerations are noted including fringe field effects, magnetic shielding, radiofrequency shielding, cryogens, metallic screening and specific considerations in the Magnet room.
