Abstract

Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) systems generate intense static magnetic fields (SMFs), with fringe field propagation varying considerably between installations, even among scanners that operate at the same nominal field strength. This study investigates the safety implications of magnetic field leakage by quantifying and comparing SMFs distributions surrounding multiple MRI facilities. The assessment covers 1.5 T MRI scanners at Hospital Canselor Tuanku Muhriz (HCTM) and Hospital Pakar Kanak-Kanak UKM (HPKK), and 3 T scanners at the National Cancer Institute / Institut Kanser Negara (IKN), Pusat Pengimejan Diagnostik Nuklear (PPDN), and HCTM. Magnetic field intensities were recorded using a Magnetometer HP-01 provided by the Medical Radiation Surveillance Division (BKRP), Ministry of Health Malaysia, and visualised using MATLAB to model spatial field dispersion. Statistical tools, including Box and Whisker plots and the Shapiro-Wilk test, were employed to analyse magnetic field uniformity and containment. Specifically, 1.5 T scanners at HCTM and HPKK, and 3.0 T scanners at IKN, PPDN, and HCTM, each displayed distinct SMFs propagation profiles. These findings align with earlier studies conducted in Italy, confirming that magnetic field distributions near the magnet core can differ substantially based on scanner model and site-specific installation variables—even when B₀ remains constant. Notably, HCTM exhibited superior SMFs confinement, with lower standard deviation and a narrower distribution range, suggesting better shielding design. This enhances occupational safety in zones where radiographers frequently operate. The results reinforce the need for site-specific SMFs assessments and optimised shielding practices to maintain safe MRI environments for both staff and patients

Abstract

This study presents a comparative analysis of the structural and superconducting properties of YBa₂Cu₃O₇−δ (Y-123) and Y₂Ba₄Cu₇O₁₅−δ (Y-247) superconductors synthesised via a thermal treatment method at 980 °C. Metal nitrates were used as starting precursors, with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) serving as a capping agent to enhance dispersion and control microstructure. X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirmed that Y-123 and Y-247 were the dominant phases in their respective samples, although minor peaks of BaCuO₂ were detected, indicating the presence of secondary phases. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that Y-247 exhibited larger grain morphology and higher porosity than Y-123, suggesting that the chosen sintering temperature exceeds the thermal stability range for the Y-247 phase. Electrical resistivity measurements showed a single superconducting transition for both samples, with Y-123 exhibiting a sharper transition width (ΔTc = 8.1 K) compared to Y-247, indicating better grain connectivity and phase uniformity. Energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) supported the elemental presence of Y, Ba, Cu, and O in both samples, though variations in stoichiometry were attributed to secondary phases. The observed expansion in the c-axis lattice of Y-247, combined with its higher porosity, points to oxygen loss during sintering, which contributes to the reduced superconducting performance. Overall, the results confirm that both Y-123 and Y-247 can be successfully synthesised using a simple and environmentally friendly thermal treatment method. However, Y-123 exhibits better structural integrity and superconducting performance at the high sintering temperature of 980 °C, making it a more promising candidate for large-scale production of bulk high-temperature superconductors.
