  • Causa
    The thickness and location of the shielding material must be installed according to the shielding requirements provided by philips. in cases where the requirements are not followed the distance between the passive shielding rear wall and the magnet could be insufficient. an insufficient distance leads to stronger attraction forces between the magnet and the passive shielding. these stronger forces may lead to shearing of the magnet vibration pads. in a worst case scenario it may result in displacement of the magnet. displacement of a magnet can result in image quality issues and mechanical fitting problems with the table. these functional issues affect the clinical usage of the mr system.
