Abstract

A system for non-invasive analysis of tissue includes a non-ferromagnetic handheld probe (15) distinguishing between nerves, muscles and blood vessels. A magnetic field source in the probe generates auniform, time-invariant magnetic field within a volume of tissue and contains an inductive coil (19) that receives RF excitation signals in a specific frequency range related to the field strength thereby generating excitation signals perpendicular to a direction of the magnetic field and magnetizing a slice of the living tissue having depth and thickness predetermined by the field strength whereby only living tissue in each slice responds to nuclear spin echo signals. A control unit generates time patterns of the excitation signals and extracts data indicative of the nuclear spin echo signals from the living tissue, determines relaxation curves having time constants T1, T2 and performs statistical processing of the relaxation curves to determine the type of tissue excited by the probe.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the use of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to analyze and detect body tissues. Background technique [0002] Nuclear magnetic resonance is a well-known non-invasive method used in medical imaging (MRI). Its effectiveness for radiological diagnosis is the result of the ability to distinguish different types of tissue based on the water content of the tissue in response to different RF pulse sequences. Specifically, the contrast in the MR image is the result of the different relaxation times of the tissue after RF excitation called T1 and T2. [0003] US 2015 / 0018638 provides a technique for non-invasive measurement of blood-related parameters based on an NMR (nuclear) relaxation technique performed using a relatively low constant magnetic field in the range of 0.15 Tesla to 0.5 Tesla. Multiple electromagnetic excitation pulse sequences with relatively low radio frequencies are applied to the living tissue placed in a magnetic field,...
