    摘要: Systems and methods are described that enable sensing of magnetic fields within skin tissue. Specifically, a system includes one or more microneedles that include a high magnetic permeability material. The system also includes a magnetic sensor communicatively coupled to the microneedle and configured to detect a magnetic field proximate to the microneedle. The system also includes a controller configured to receive information indicative of a magnetic field proximate to a portion of the microneedle. The controller is further configured to determine a presence of at least one magnetic nanoparticle proximate to the portion of the microneedle based on the received information. Alternatively, other embodiments include a microneedle that includes a nanodiamond material configured to detect a local magnetic field. Such embodiments also include a light source configured to cause the nanodiamond material to emit characteristic emission light that may indicate at least a magnitude of the magnetic field.

    摘要: A Magnetic Particle Imaging (MPI) system with a magnet configured to generate a magnetic field with a field free line, the magnet integrated with a flux return designed so that a flux path at approximately the center of the field-free line has a first reluctance and a second flux path distal from the center of the field-free line has a second reluctance, and the second reluctance is lower than the first reluctance to facilitate a high fidelity magnetic field and high fidelity field free line.
