The world’s most modern, powerful 11.7 ‘Tesla’ MRI, scanned images of the human brain have been released by scientists at France’s Atomic Energy Research Center.
When the pumpkin was imaged in an 11.7 Tesla MRI scan, the inner part of the seeds could also be clearly seen. Following this, MRI scans of the brains of volunteers with healthy functions have been published.
If you know about the MRI scan in practice, you will understand how important this research is.
In an MRI scan, Tesla refers to the machine’s magnetic force. Simply put, it’s like a car’s engine capacity. The stronger the magnetic force, the more accurately the body will show the internal organ. When MRI scans were introduced, they had a power of 0.3 Tesla. Then came the slightly more advanced 0.5 Tesla. After this, the 1.5 Tesla was used from 1992 – 2010. Since 2014, 3 tesla capacity MRI scans have been introduced. I have many years of continuous experience working in 1.5 Tesla MRI scanners. Currently using 3 Tesla.
In this, even small tumors in brain nerve cells can be accurately seen.
A CT scan of an amnesiac can only look for bleeding in the brain. An MRI scan of the same person can also confirm the presence of stroke.
There are 7 Tesla MRI scans with higher magnetic efficiency in Europe, America, China, South Korea and Japan. There is not much difference between this and the results of a 3 tesla capacity MRI scan.
For example, if a tumor appears white at 3 Tesla, it will appear slightly brighter when viewed at 7 Tesla. Like the difference between watching on normal ‘TV’ and watching on ‘HD TV’. An MRI scan of the knee joint shows the ligaments inside the bone. This is how we can see the tendons individually at 7 Tesla.
After this, 9.4, 10.5, 11.6 Tesla in USA and Germany are the latest developments in MRI scan. 11.7, currently at the Atomic Research Center in France, is entirely for research purposes. In this, the human brain has been accurately captured and released.
What is the benefit of this?
To the extent that we understand why physical disorders, including cancer, occur, we have not been able to find out why mental disorders caused by changes in the chemical substances secreted by brain and spinal cord nerve cells, and neurological problems caused by the degeneration of brain nerve cells such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s, are known as ‘neuro-regenerative diseases’.
The reason is that the hippocampus, a 4mm area in the brain where the nerve cells are degenerating, has not been accurately seen in conventional MRI scans. In this area, nerve cell degeneration and iron deposits can occur as early signs of Alzheimer’s. Hippo campus size may decrease. At 11.7 Tesla it can be clearly seen and can be treated at an early stage.
Colon, a chemical in a brain cancer tumor, accurately captures Parkinson’s disease in the midbrain. It can be seen at 11.7 tesla whether the drugs given during the treatment are deposited in a specific place and work. Neurodegenerative disorders, including dementia, which affects 70 percent of people over age 60, are diseases we don’t think of as diseases. The reason is that these are challenges that are not fully understood in medical science. A new 11.7 Tesla MRI scan is believed to be the solution to all this.
