Abstract
Apparatus, methods, and other embodiments associated with wireless magnetic field monitoring (wMFM) in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are described. One example apparatus includes a wMFM module configured to receive an MFM signal from an MFM probe and to wirelessly transmit modulated MFM signals produced from the received MFM signals to an MRI apparatus. The MRI apparatus is configured with a wireless receiver that receives and processes the modulated MFM signals into information used in an image reconstruction. The MRI apparatus includes an MRI reconstruction logic configured to produce an MR image from the MRI signal based, at least in part, on the magnetic field measurement information.
