A Hardware and Software Complex for Monitoring the Temperature of an MRI Magnet
摘要
A hardware and software complex designed to control the temperature of a permanent magnet of a magnetic resonance imaging system and to protect it from overheating in case of failures of the temperature-control system is described. The complex consists of several digital temperature sensors and a meter-recorder that measures temperatures, registers them in memory, and switches off the temperature-control system in case of overheating. Interaction with the computer is carried out with the help of a computer application that provides the setting of the meter, receiving recorded data, visualizing them in graphical and digital form, and saving them in files. The exchange between the meter and the computer is carried out through the local network using the Wi-Fi interface. The complex can also be used in other similar applications.
