MRI Room Testing Solutions specializes in providing comprehensive testing services for MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) facilities. We ensure the safety, compliance, and efficiency of MRI rooms through thorough testing and analysis. Our team of certified technicians utilizes advanced equipment and industry-leading practices to deliver accurate results and recommendations.

At RADWRX, precise measurement and analysis of magnetic field strength to ensure it meets safety standards and minimizes risks.

We are committed to safeguarding the integrity and performance of MRI facilities, ensuring a safe and reliable environment for medical imaging procedures.

MRI ROOM TESTING

Our range of services covers all critical aspects of MRI room testing. From measuring magnetic field strength and assessing RF shielding integrity to evaluating gradient coil performance and detecting ferromagnetic objects, we leave no stone unturned in ensuring the safety and efficiency of MRI facilities. Furthermore, we meticulously analyze noise levels within MRI rooms, recognizing the importance of patient comfort and regulatory adherence. Our comprehensive reports offer detailed findings, actionable recommendations, and guidance on maintaining compliance and optimizing performance.

Electric currents that oscillate at radio frequencies have special properties not shared by direct current or alternating current of lower frequencies.

  • The energy in an RF current can radiate off a conductor into space as electromagnetic waves (radio waves); this is the basis of radio technology.
  • RF current does not penetrate deeply into electrical conductors but tends to flow along their surfaces; this is known as the skin effect. For this reason, when the human body comes in contact with high power RF currents it can cause superficial but serious burns called RF burns.
  • RF currents applied to the body often do not cause the painful sensation of electric shock as do lower frequency currents.[2][3] This is because the current changes direction too quickly to trigger depolarization of nerve membranes.
  • RF current can easily ionize air, creating a conductive path through it. This property is exploited by “high frequency” units used in electric arc welding, which use currents at higher frequencies than power distribution uses.
  • Another property is the ability to appear to flow through paths that contain insulating material, like the dielectric insulator of a capacitor.
  • When conducted by an ordinary electric cable, RF current has a tendency to reflect from discontinuities in the cable such as connectors and travel back down the cable toward the source, causing a condition called standing waves, so RF current must be carried by specialized types of cable called transmission line.

Radio Frequency (RF)

Radio frequency (RF) is a rate of oscillation in the range of around 3 kHz to 300 GHz, which corresponds to the frequency of radio waves, and the alternating currents which carry radio signals. RF usually refers to electrical rather than mechanical oscillations; however, mechanical RF systems do exist (see mechanical filter and RF MEMS).

Although radio frequency is a rate of oscillation, the term “radio frequency” or its abbreviation “RF” are also used as a synonym for radio – i.e. to describe the use of wireless communication, as opposed to communication via electric wires.
