US Patent Issued to Siemens Healthineers on Jan. 13 for "Reducing and correcting magnetic field gradient deviations" (German Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., Jan. 13 -- United States Patent no. 12,523,727, issued on Jan. 13, was assigned to Siemens Healthineers AG (Forchheim, Germany).

"Reducing and correcting magnetic field gradient deviations" was invented by Manuel Stich (Parkstein, Germany) and Philipp Puls (Erlangen, Germany).

According to the abstract* released by the U.S. Patent & Trademark Office: "A deviation from a target gradient of a magnetic field gradient created by an MR system is reduced or corrected. The MR system includes an amplifier, which amplifies an amplifier input signal and outputs an amplifier output signal, and a gradient coil, which creates the magnetic field gradient with the aid of the amplifier output signal. Input data is provided for a trained ...
