Exploring Concerns for Designing and Testing Medical Devices
How can Vector Network Analyzers be used for testing in the medical industry?
There are several principal areas where a vector network analyzer (VNA) is used in the medical industry. First, “body coils” are used in MRI to excite a proton resonance in human tissue so that internal images may be produced. These coils must be tuned to a specific frequency (Larmor frequency) in order to achieve the best sensitivity. A VNA may be used to measure this resonance and is an important tool for body coil design.
