Study Notes
- Magnetism is created by the principles defined by Pauli’s Exclusion Principle.
- Ferromagnetism is created when crystal-like structures within a substance contained atoms with one electron in its orbital.
- When only one electron is found within an orbital, a charge is place on the atom.
- Ferrous objects are not allowed in the MR environment due to the risk that they may be attracted towards the gantry of the MRI unit.
- Paramagnetism is created when atoms in a substance contained one electron in its orbital.
- Diamagnetism is created when atoms in a substance contained no electrons in its orbital.
- Diamagnetic substances have no net charge and are repelled by an external magnetic field.
- Copper, gold, and silver are examples of diamagnetic substances.
- Diamagnetic substances are created when all the orbitals within an atom contain two electrons.
- When placed in an external magnetic field, diamagnetic substances are repelled.
