众所周知,为了获得最佳灵敏度,SQUID生物磁强计的拾取线圈的直径应不小于源与线圈的间距,而这一距离是磁强计空间分辨率的主要决定因素(Roth等人,1989)。因此,采用传统杜瓦的SQUID系统通常具有10至20毫米的空间分辨率,如果以成像电流分布的能力(Roth等人,1989)或解析两个紧密间隔的偶极电流源的能力来测量分辨率(Tan等人,1989)。虽然1至2厘米的分辨率对许多人体研究来说是足够的,但对体外制剂(如分离的神经和肌肉以及大脑和心脏组织切片)的实验将受益于1至2毫米的分辨率。由于这些源的磁场在l/r2到l/ r3时衰减,因此用绝对磁强计灵敏度来减小线圈到源的间距是有利的(Roth et al. 1989; Wikswo, 1988)。我们描述了用4通道SQUID梯度仪进行的测量,其直径为3mm的拾取线圈位于距离杜瓦瓶外表面1.4 mm处(Buchanan等人,1989)。
It is well known that for optimum sensitivity, the diameter of the pickup coil for a SQUID biomagnetometer should be no less than the source-to-coil spacing, and that this distance is the primary determinant of the spatial resolution of the magnetometer (Roth et al., 1989). As a result, SQUID systems with conventional Dewars typically have spatial resolutions of 10 to 20 mm when resolution is measured in terms of the ability either to image a current distribution (Roth et al., 1989) or to resolve two closely-spaced dipolar current sources (Tan et al., 1989). While 1 to 2 cm resolution is adequate for many studies on humans, experiments on in vitro preparations such as isolated nerves and muscles and slices of brain and cardiac tissue would benefit from 1 to 2 mm resolution. Because the fields from these sources fall off as l/r2 to l/ r3, it can be advantageous to trade absolute magnetometer sensitivity for decreased coil-to-source spacing (Roth et al. 1989; Wikswo, 1988). We describe measurements made with a 4-channel SQUID gradiometer whose 3 mm diameter pickup coils are located 1.4 mm from the outer surface of the Dewar (Buchanan, et al., 1989).
