Abstract
A magnetic-resonance compatible earphone is provided comprising an earphone body, a diaphragm, and a drive coil. The diaphragm is arranged on the earphone body and configured to generate sound through vibration. The drive coil is arranged on the earphone body and used to receive audio current. The drive coil that has received the audio current is able to generate a Lorentz force under the action of a main magnetic field of a magnetic resonance imaging system. The drive coil is able to drive the diaphragm to vibrate by means of the Lorentz force generated by the drive coil. The magnetic-resonance compatible earphone has good magnetic resonance compatibility. In addition, a magnetic-resonance compatible intercom system and a head coil apparatus comprising the magnetic-resonance compatible earphone are also provided.
