Shielding of magnetic resonance imaging apparatus
Combined MRI and radiotherapy installations require complex Faraday cage structure that encloses the room, the MRI magnets, and the patient volume, but excludes the linear accelerator path and its supply cabling. A problem with this is that the MRI magnets tend to vibrate when in use, and if physically connected to a rigid structure then the vibrations will be passed to that structure also. To alleviate this, we propose that the Faraday cage be made of a mix of prefabricated conductive sections and flexible sections of a conductive sheet. The flexible conductive sheet can be copper or aluminium, in the form of a foil or mesh.
