Magnetically templated tissue engineering scaffolds and methods of making and using the magnetically templated tissue engineering scaffolds

A magnetic particle imaging system that includes a magnetic field generating system with at least one magnet and providing a gradient magnetic field within an observation region such that the gradient magnetic field has a dynamic field-free region (FFR) for an object under observation having strongly-interacting magnetic particles distributed therein. The magnetic field generating system also includes a drive field and a slow shift field that dynamically shifts the FFR across a field of view (FOV) within the observation region, where the trajectory of the drive field accommodates for a coercivity of the strongly-interacting magnetic particles by ensuring that the particles in the FOV are saturated to a full coercivity field prior to traversing to an opposite-polarity of coercivity. The magnetic particle imaging system also includes a detection system proximate the observation region and configured to detect a signal from the strongly-interacting magnetic particles. The magnetic particle imaging system further includes signal processor in communication with the detection system, configured to receive and process the detected signal to remove a coercivity shift due to the coercivity of the strongly-interacting magnetic particles, and convert the processed detection signal into an image of the strongly-interacting magnetic particles.

Disclosed are various embodiments for a system configured to characterize a magnetic response of a sample. The system can comprise an electrical source configured to generate a time-varying current supply, an excitation coil system coupled to the electrical source to generate a time-vary magnetic field for application to a sample, and a sensing coil system that senses a magnetic response of the sample in response to the time-varying magnetic field. The sensing coil system can comprise a pick-up coil and a balancing coil that can be translated or rotated. The balancing coil configured to cancel a feed-through induction signal. In another embodiment, the sensing coil system can comprise an adjustable fine-tuning coil that is configured to modify an effect of the cancellation of the feed-through induction signal.
