Job Description
Duration: 6 months
From: March 2025 (flexible)
Skills & Experience
Training: Applied/Experimental physics Electrical/Electronic engineering
Key Responsibilities
Following the successful acquisition of 3D MRI images on a phantom using Chipirons customized SQUID MRI scanner we are starting the development of humanscale radiofrequency coils (transmit and receive) operating at 1mT and 10 mT. These coils aim to enhance our imaging capabilities expanding our focus to diverse regions of the human anatomy including the brain knee wrist and beyond.
To achieve this goal we will perform electromagnetic simulations to explore suitable RF coil geometries at ultralow field (1 10 mT). The selected geometries will then be fabricated and tested on our custom MRISQUID scanner with the ultimate goal of achieving 2x2x4 mm image resolution.
Tasks:
- EM simulation of transmit and receive coils for a human scale size at 1 mT
- Build the RF coils
- Tune and match the coils
- Fabrication of a human shape phantom (head or extremities)
- Characterize the RF coils on the bench in terms of field homogeneity efficiency and coils sensitivity
- Integrate the coils to a 1 mT SQUIDMRI
- Get an NMR signal 1D and 2D images with the coils
Who We Are
