Why is helium used in MRI machines?
MRI machines use liquid helium to cool down the superconducting magnets that are needed to create the high magnetic field necessary for magnetic resonance imaging. Every high-field magnetic resonance machine, MRI or NMR, has an inner dewar filled with helium and an outer one filled with liquid nitrogen.
How much does it cost to refill my MRI scanner with helium?
That means that 864 litres are consumed per year (1800 litres * 48% = 864 litres). Assuming the price of liquid helium per litre is around 30€ at the time of your purchase, it will cost you approximately 25.920€ (14€/l * 864 litres = 25.920 €) per year to refill your MRI Scanner with liquid helium.
What is the temperature of an MRI machine?
The machine requires a substance in order for it to maintain a cold temperature, and that substance is liquid helium. The wires continuously are doused with liquid helium. The fluid has a temperature of -269.1 degrees Celsius, which is the equivalent of -452.11 Fahrenheit. The average MRI machine utilizes 1,700 liters of helium.
How much helium does it take to scan a balloon?
A standard 18″ balloon requires about .1 oz of helium, and the machine uses about 56,100 oz to give you a mental picture of how much helium that is. The amount of helium in the scanner must be topped off on a regular basis, which increases the amount of helium used by the machine even further.
