Temporal interference magnetic stimulation is a novel noninvasive deep brain neuromodulation technology that can solve the problem of balance between focus area and stimulation depth. However, at present, the stimulation target of this technology is relatively single, and it is difficult to realize the coordinated stimulation of multiple brain regions, which limits its application in the modulation of multiple nodes in the brain network. This paper first proposes a multi-target temporal interference magnetic stimulation system with array coils. The array coils are composed of seven coil units with an outer radius of 25 mm, and the spacing between coil units is 2 mm. Secondly, models of human tissue fluid and the human brain sphere are established. Finally, the relationship between the movement of the focus area and the amplitude ratio of the difference frequency excitation sources under time interference is discussed. The results show that in the case of a ratio of 1:5, the peak position of the amplitude modulation intensity of the induced electric field has moved 45 mm; that is, the movement of the focus area is related to the amplitude ratio of the difference frequency excitation sources. The conclusion is that multi-target temporal interference magnetic stimulation with array coils can simultaneously stimulate multiple network nodes in the brain region; rough positioning can be performed by controlling the conduction of different coils, fine-tuning the position by changing the current ratio of the conduction coils, and realizing accurate stimulation of multiple targets in the brain area.

Multichannel transceiver coil arrays are needed to enable parallel imaging and B1 manipulation in ultrahigh field MR imaging and spectroscopy. However, the design of such transceiver coils and coil arrays often faces technical challenges in achieving the required high operating frequency at the ultrahigh fields and sufficient electromagnetic (EM) decoupling between resonant elements. In this work, we propose a high impedance microstrip transmission line resonator (HIMTL) technique that has unique high frequency capability and adequate EM decoupling without the use of dedicated decoupling circuits.

Overexpression of the myeloid Src-family kinases Fgr and Hck has been linked to the development of acute myeloid leukemia (AML). Here we characterized the contribution of active forms of these kinases to AML cell cytokine dependence, inhibitor sensitivity, and AML cell engraftment in vivo. The human TF-1 erythroleukemia cell line was used as a model system as it does not express endogenous Hck or Fgr.

Background: Low-field open magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems, typically operating at magnetic field strengths below 1 Tesla, has greatly expanded the accessibility of MRI technology to meet a wide range of patient needs. However, the inherent challenges of low-field MRI, such as limited signal-to-noise ratios and limited availability of dedicated radiofrequency (RF) coils, have prompted the need for innovative coil designs that can improve imaging quality and diagnostic capabilities. In this work, we introduce a multimodal axial array resonator and its implementation in a volume coil, or referred to as a coupled stack-up volume coil, to address these challenges in low-field open MRI.

Prospective motion corrections in brain imaging for MRI are fairly challenging. Monitoring involuntary head movement inside MR scanner is crucial for prospective motion correction. This initial study delves into utilizing simulations to track the head's movements within an MRI scanner, achieved by measuring induced voltage changes from time-varying magnetic field gradients in head-mounted coils.

Superconductors play a crucial role in the advancement of high-field electromagnets. Unfortunately, their performance can be compromised by thermomagnetic instabilities, wherein the interplay of rapid magnetic and slow heat diffusion can result in catastrophic flux jumps, eventually leading to irreversible damage. This issue has long plagued high-J NbSn wires at the core of high-field magnets.
