The mutual electromagnetic interference (EMI) effects between both systems were evaluated on a 7 T magnet by characterizing the response behavior of the ClearPEM detectors and front-end electronics to pulsed RF power and switched magnetic field gradients; and by analyzing the MR system performance degradation from noise pickup into the RF receiver chain, and from magnetic susceptibility artifacts caused by PET front-end materials.PET ClearPEM 7 Tesla MR Simultaneous PET-MRI EMI and EMCCIBM-AITCIBM-PETtext::journal::journal article::research article
