Abstract

Magnetic Particle Imaging is an imaging modality for measuring the spatial distribution of superparamagnetic nanoparticles. Here, the imaging quality and resolution depends on the raised harmonics caused by the nanoparticles, when exposed to alternating magnetic fields. The more harmonics are measureable the better the imaging quality. In this contribution, a magnetic particle spectrometer is presented for measuring the originated harmonics. Based on these measurements, two different performance indicators are introduced to classify different nanoparticles for magnetic particle imaging.
