SGER: The Feasibility of Detecting Electrical Conductivity of Tissues Using Ultrasound in a Mangetic Field

9814411 hynynen本研究的目的是验证一个假设，即在存在高磁场的情况下施加超声波所产生的电压可以用来绘制组织的电学性质。这可能提供一种方法，以产生实时图像的电参数，与空间分辨率类似的诊断超声。应用这种方法在乳腺癌成像中可能特别有价值，因为乳腺肿瘤会引起组织电参数的巨大变化

9814411HynynenThe goal of this proposed research is to test the hypothesis that voltage induced by applying ultrasound in the presence of high magnetic fields can be used to map the electric properties of tissues. This may provide a means to generate real time images of the electrical parameters, with spatial resolutions similar to diagnostic ultrasound. Applying this method may be particularly valuable in breast cancer imaging since breast tumors give rise to large variations in tissue electrical parameters.***
