Title: Jurgen Weizenecker: Innovator in Magnetic Particle Imaging
Introduction
Jurgen Weizenecker is a prominent inventor based in Hamburg, Germany. He has made significant contributions to the field of Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI), holding a total of 5 patents. His work focuses on the development of advanced apparatuses for detecting and influencing magnetic particles, which have important applications in medical imaging and diagnostics.
Latest Patents
Weizenecker's latest patents include innovative technologies aimed at enhancing the capabilities of MPI. One notable patent is for an apparatus that detects magnetic particles in a field of view. This apparatus includes selection and focus magnetic field coil pairs, drive pairs, and detection coils. A computer is configured to receive background signals from the detection coils, control the current supplied to the drive coil pair to shift the field of view in space, and reconstruct detection signals into an image of the field of view. The computer selects specific frequency components of the detection signals, which are then used for image reconstruction.
Another significant patent involves an apparatus for influencing and detecting magnetic particles in a field of view. This invention applies the known principles of MPI and includes selection means for generating a magnetic selection field, drive means for changing the position of the field free point, and a control unit for acquiring high and low-resolution detection signals. The reconstruction unit then reconstructs a particle distribution quantity based on these signals.
