Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The present invention relates to a superconducting magnet device and a nuclear magnetic resonance imaging device (hereinafter abbreviated as MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) device) using the superconducting magnet device. Background technique
[0002] In recent years, open-type MRI apparatuses that do not give patients such as subjects a sense of closure have become popular. In an open MRI apparatus, annular helium containers filled with liquid helium are symmetrically provided above and below a space in which a subject is placed, and a bobbin (coil bobbin) on which a superconducting coil is wound is accommodated therein.
[0003] In such an MRI apparatus, generally, a support structure is used to support the coil bobbin, and the entire support structure and the coil bobbin are covered with a helium container. In the case of such a structure, it is necessary to increase the size of the space. At this time, since the bobbin and the supporting structu...
