Thanks so much. 🎉 I have some stuck with this kind of knowledge. I have been reading many lectures about MRI. Could I ask you some question, Mister? 1. Some of people said that: The flip angle is determined by proportion of spin state "up and down" after exciting pulse. Is that correct? 2. After 90 RF pulse, a number of spin up will be equal to spin down. The spins which is resonated will be in phase. It is explained by quantumn machenics. But it seems to confuse me. Maybe is there something force them to be in phase? Also I don't know why 180 RF pulse cause it too. Somewhere in the internet, they explained understandably in the vector frame that the fast spin will catch up the lag spin and despend on the direction you put 180 pulse in. But when i try to apply it into the picture of spin-state, it makes me impossible to understand. 3. About 180 RF pulse in spin echo, after 90 exciting pulse, the transverse magnetization will gain conherence a little bit then dephasing with T2* decay. When we do a series of another 180 RF pulse, we have some coherence peaks. However, they gradually descrease magnitude and when we connect these peaks, we have T2 Decay. What make these peaks become smaller and smaller after 180 RF pulses. 4. After 90 RF pulse, we add a RF 180F Pulse. Now the vector B1 maybe >180? Is that mean the more spin up state becomes spin down? Could you do me a favor? 😭 I stuck with these problems a few days.

Thanks for the comment and great questions my friend! I think you are getting at a really frustrating point in that yes all of the physics governing magnetic resonance imaging are indeed covered by the laws of quantum mechanics, but trying to visualize what is going on at the quantum level is near impossible and for good reason! If the position and spin are mere statistical quantities resolved at measurement, how can we truly know their precise number and position/orientation? I think at best we can say a statistical number of these spins will be more aligned with the magnetic field B0 than randomly, our RF pulse will imbue a statistically higher number of these spins with a coherent precessional frequency and flip angle to produce a signal and so forth. But I think the visuals we use to depict these in a classical sense still hold a great degree of truth of what's going on. As to question #3, what makes the peaks become smaller is the ever increasing disorder of the system that begins as soon as we apply our initial RF pulse. Think of it like friction in the real world, we will always have irrecoverable energy loses with any system we put energy into whether it be your car or an MRI machine (excluding semiconductors!). We actually talk about this in the Turbo-Fast Spin Echo here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kL1nl9pe37Kdj4E.html Hope this helps!

Thanks for this! I noticed at 6:23 in video you discussing spinning after RF pulse, wouldn't they be "wobbling" around a vector pointed in the y-xis? As opposed to circling all the way around like that? Sorry probably dumb question
@MRIPhysicsEXPLAINED6 ай бұрын
No question is dumb, thanks for the commenting! It can be really hard to picture how this process plays out in 3D space but the axis of precession is the Z-axis. The net magnetizations in each voxel are vectors that can be oriented in any direction. At first, right after our initial RF pulse, they are aligned i.e. "in-phase", all precessing coherently about the z-axis, but naturally they begin pointing in different directions as time goes on and they became more and more disordered i.e. "dephased" but the axis of procession as a group remains the Z-axis. What is important when considering signal generation is how these vectors project into the XY-plane, as shown in the mentioned animation. Hope this helps!
