I just want to gain a ballpark estimate for how much force an MRI machine can generate on a small object such as a nail.. let's say the magnet is 1-2 Tesla. Very rough estimates are ok.
The nail inside an MRI machine serves as a reference point for the magnetic field. It helps to calibrate the machine and ensure accurate imaging results.
The nail has a strong magnetic field that interacts with the magnetic field of the MRI machine. This interaction helps to create a stable and uniform magnetic field for imaging.
No, the nail is not a safety hazard for patients. The magnetic field of the nail is very small and does not pose any risk to the patient's health.
Yes, the force of the nail can be adjusted by changing the strength of the magnetic field in the machine. This can be done by adjusting the current in the coils of the machine.
The nail serves as a reference point for the magnetic field, which is crucial for producing high-quality images. Without the nail, the magnetic field may be unstable and lead to distorted images.
