Description
Summary:Image quality in the new imaging modality magnetic particle imaging (MPI) heavily relies on the quality of the magnetic nanoparticles in use. Therefore, it is crucial to understand the behaviour of such particles. A common technique to analyze the behaviour of the particles is magnetic particle spectrometry (MPS). However, most spectrometers are limited to measurements at a single or multiple discrete excitation frequencies. This paper introduces a frequency-tunable spectrometer, able to perform measurements in the range of 100 Hz - 24kHz.
