Question 1 of 94
Regarding nuclear magnetic resonance (MR):
  • AOnly atoms with an odd number of either protons or neutrons exhibit magnetic resonance
  • BIn a 1 T magnetic field a hydrogen atom proton will precess with a frequency of 42.6 MHz
  • CPlaced in a powerful static magnetic field, all of the hydrogen atom protons in a patient will align themselves with this field
  • DThe bulk magnetization of one million hydrogen nuclei in a patient will depend on a difference in alignment of only one nucleus in a 1 T magnet
  • EIt is the combined magnetic vector of the hydrogen nuclei in a static field which provides the signal for MR
