RF SHIELDED EXAM ROOM OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING SYSTEM Russian patent published in 2018 - IPC G01R33/422 

FIELD: medical equipment.

SUBSTANCE: use: for electromagnetic shielding of a magnetic resonance imaging system. Essence of the invention lies in that exam room shielding comprises a ceiling, a floor, side walls interconnecting the ceiling and the floor, and a tubular shielding device, which is arranged to surround an examination tube of the magnetic resonance imaging system, wherein both longitudinal ends of the tubular shielding device are circumferentially connected to openings of the side walls, and the side walls of the shielding form the outline of a U-shaped room, with the longitudinal ends of the tubular shielding device interconnecting the lateral flanks of the U-shaped room. Further, the present invention provides a magnetic resonance imaging system comprising an exam room, wherein the exam room has the above exam room shielding. Present invention also provides a system comprising the above magnetic resonance imaging system and an additional treatment or diagnosis device located at an outer circumference of the tubular shielding device. This separates the space inside the exam room into a compartment free of RF noise, i.e. the space surrounded by the exam room shielding, for MR scanning, and a compartment outside the shielding, in which an operator can move for operating the MR imaging system and/or preparing a person for a MR scan.

EFFECT: technical result: creating an exam room shielding, having good shielding capabilities and providing a high ergonomics for operation, for maintenance of the magnetic resonance imaging system, as well as for the preparation of patients, located within the examination space of the magnetic resonance imaging system, and care for said patients.
