Model 1040 MR Monitoring & Gating System for Magnetic Particle Imaging

The Model 1040 monitoring and gating system was designed specifically to meet the physiological monitoring and gating needs for anesthetized rodents in MPI scanners.  The Model 1040 consists of a Respiration/Temperature data acquisition module located just outside the magnet near the animal and a Control/Gating Module connected to a PC located near the operator console.  The PC displays multiple waveforms, measured values, trends and gating pulses.  The Model 1040 is MR and CT-compatible.

Description

The new Model 1040 monitoring and gating system was designed specifically to meet the physiological monitoring and gating needs for anesthetized rodents in MPI scanners.  The Model 1040 consists of a Respiration/Temperature data acquisition module located just outside the magnet near the animal and a Control/Gating Module connected to a PC located near the operator console.  The PC displays multiple waveforms, measured values, trends and gating pulses.  The Model 1040 is MR and CT-compatible.

The Model 1040 Control/Gating Module sends and receives digitized data over two fiber optic cables to and from the Respiration/Temperature Module.  It sends data to the PC for display and receives user instructions from the PC to control measurement and gating functions.  Gates generated by the Control/Gating Module’s microprocessor are sent to the MPI system.  Gate delay and width are user selectable.

    – Respiration   – Respiration
    – Temperature   – Cardiac with Pulse Ox option
  – Respiration and Cardiac
Options
  – Pulse Oximetry Waveform & trend data
  – Heater to regulate temperature

The Control/Gating Module has the capability to control an air heating system which can regulate the temperature of animals undergoing MPI.  The system has a MR-compatible Heater Module that is positioned near the magnet bore and a Fan Module located outside the magnet room.

Pulse oximetry can be added to provide heart rate, oxygen saturation, a cardiac waveform and cardiac gates.  The Pulse Oximetry Module is positioned near the magnet with the Respiration/Temperature Module and uses a fiber optic sensor to monitor the rodent in the magnet.
