Magnetic Resonance Imaging testing stands to benefit from Nanotechnology
Nanotechnology can be deployed in the arena of MRI too. IBM researchers have combined MRI with the accuracy of atomic force microscopes and created sixty thousand times small MRI images as compared to the blocking vpn master where the nanometer resolution achieved was ninety which is ten times bigger as compared to the typical molecule. The researchers came up with a latest atomic force microscope probe and coupled it with high magnetic layers of cobalt, iron and rubidium. These magnetic tips are responsible for converting atomic force microscopes into little MRI machines.
The advantage of this is that the magnetic resonance force microscope just requires around thousand atom spin in their tiny sample and hence can watch till a depth of forty nanometers in samples. The researchers even have a plan of increasing the resolution of the device by ten times which could help in looking into the molecules as they undergo chemical reactions. This will surely help the medical field and make their job easier.
