| 摘要 |
An NMR imaging apparatus is described having a desired imaging volume for imaging of biological tissue, said apparatus comprising bias means for generating a bias field, means for generating gradient fields, and radio frequency means for applying a pulse of electromagnetic radiation to the biological tissue and for detecting the resultant signals emitted from said tissue; wherein said bias means comprises a plurality of dipole ring magnets, each dipole ring magnet comprising a plurality of segments, each segment comprising an oriented, anisotropic permanent magnet material arranged in a ring so that there is a substantially continuous ring of permanent magnet material; wherein the inner radius of at least one dipole ring magnet is different from the inner radius of an adjacent dipole ring magnet.
