The disclosure relates to a radio-based physiological acquisition system for an RF-shielded room comprising a peripheral acquisition unit with a peripheral transmitter, a peripheral control unit, and a door sensor unit. The door sensor unit is configured to determine an opening status of a door in an RF shield around the RF-shielded room. The peripheral acquisition unit is configured to switch off the peripheral transmitter depending on the opening status of the door, e.g. when the door is open.

Physiological acquisition system for use in an RF-shielded room

A direct current (DC) motor for operation in an external magnetic field may include a rotor which is rotatable about a rotation axis and has at least two windings, at least four continuous rotary transmitters, wherein two rotary transmitters are associated with each of the windings and are configured to supply the associated winding with direct current, an angle sensor which is configured to determine the angular position of the rotor, and a controller configured to control the current feed to at least one of the windings dependent upon the angular position of the rotor. The motor is oriented relative to an external magnetic field during operation so that the rotation axis extends transversely to the external magnetic field.

An electrocardiography device (ECG device) designed for use in combination with a magnetic resonance device, including: a carrier unit; a receiving unit designed to mount on the carrier unit; an electrode; an electrode conductor connecting the electrode to the receiving unit, wherein the electrode conductor is stabilized at least partially by way of a shapeable guide element.

Electrocardiogram device for use in combination with a magnetic resonance device

A magnetic resonance (MR) system may include a MR device and a MR-compatible drive. The MR device may include a scanner with a basic magnet for generating a homogeneous basic magnetic field. The MR-compatible drive may include an electric motor with a stator. The stator of the electric motor may include a dominant component of the basic magnetic field of the basic magnet.
