Philips Applied Technologies, High Tech Campus 7, 5656 AE Eindhoven *Both at Philips Applied Technologies and at the Eindhoven University of Technology, Den Dolech 2, 5612 AZ Eindhoven Abstract In the field of noise-control engineering, information about the individual strength, and location, of the most dominant sources is of vital importance. This information allows the acoustic engineer to take effective measures in his effort to reduce the emitted acoustic noise levels. Near-field acoustic holography is a measurement-based tool which visualizes the acoustic fields radiated by the noise emitting object, giving the engineer the noise source information required. In the paper some applications of near-field acoustic holography, as applied at Philips, will be discussed. A cylindrical version of near-field acoustic holography was implemented and applied to a Magnetic Resonance Imaging scanner. Using an array of microphones, the measurement time to obtain the holographic recordings was reduced significantly, whilst the cylindrical near-field acoustic holography implementation allowed a near-instant post-processing of the acquired data. 1. Introduction Magnetic Resonance Imaging systems are extremely helpful within Healthcare for its ability to image the inside of the human body, especially the soft tissue, in a non-evasive way. The imaging principle is based on atoms emitting radio frequent signals when excited in the same way while being placed in a strong static magnetic field. The position information originates from a superimposed, but smaller, magnetic gradient field generated by the gradient coil tube. However the fast switching currents of the gradient coil inside the static magnetic field leads to strong Lorenz forces on the mechanical structure, such that noise is unavoidable.

2 Since the patient is right in the middle of the gradient coil bore he (or she), as well as the operator and the rest of the hospital environment needs to be shielded from the noise. The space available for shielding in the patient bore is limited. Much research is focused on optimizing the acoustic insertion loss (IL) of the gradient coil cover system. Analyzing new cover designs in detail require advanced measurement techniques. With laser vibrometry only vibrations can be measured. However acoustic leaks can not be found and the radiation efficiency of shell covers is still very much a research topic. Recently Philips Applied Technologies adapted their acoustic imaging technique such that it can be used inside a cylindrical MRI system that was on-field (meaning that the currents in the superconducting main magnet are running, thus producing a strong magnetic field). Besides plate radiation also acoustic leaks have to be imaged. The resulting images help in the further development of silent covers and will benefit the future patients. 2. Laser Vibrometry One could apply laser vibrometry to sample the structural vibrations of the gradient coil and the cover structures. This has been done by Philips for the gradient coil itself, and also by others (Kessels, [1]). Operational deflection shape analysis show that the coil vibrations can be well predicted by modeling. Sampling in this way the cover would require much more effort due to the higher spatial sampling required for imaging the smaller bending wavelengths in the light cover plating. However we are not as much interested in the structural cover modes as in the radiation modes. Additionally laser vibrometry would not be able to image acoustic leaks. For these reasons we decided to apply acoustic imaging. 3. Acoustic Imaging Wikipedia states: Acoustic holography is a method used to estimate the sound field near a source by measuring acoustic parameters away from the source via an array of pressure and/or particle velocity transducers. Source: Wikipedia Acoustic holography has been applied by many researchers to localize and identify noise sources. We call this acoustic imaging. Using acoustics measured in the far field of a source the maximal spatial resolution for imaging noise sources is limited by the free-field acoustic wavelength. By taking the exponentially decaying near-field (evanescent field) into account a higher spatial resolution is achievable, amongst others depending on the sensor spacing and the distance between the sensors and the source as well as some post processing issues (Maynard, [2]). For instance when we propagate the evanescent waves back to the source plane we have to magnify its amplitude exponentially. At high spatial wavenumbers suffering from a lower S/N ratio the imaging will deteriorate if no proper filtering is used. The better the filtering the higher wavenumbers we can include in the imaging and the higher the resolution may become. This filtering technique is subject to ongoing studies (Scholte, [3]). Within Philips Applied Technologies an acoustic imaging setup has been made which is especially devised to localize small noise sources. The technique has proven very successful in a number of applications within the Philips community. Below we see the case of a small noisy capacitor on a flexible PCB. The localization of the noisy component was quickly solved with acoustic holography. 2 NAG-Journaal

The colors indicate the intensity level (red: high intensity, blue: low intensity), clearly showing a single component emitting acoustic noise. 4. Cylindrical Set-up To apply acoustic holography inside an MRI system some issues needed to be solved. First we did not want to high frequent RF coil of the MRI imaging system be switched on, as it would not be necessary for the acoustics anyway. However the superconducting main magnet and the gradient coil, being the vibrational source, would be operated normally. Figure 4: Positioning robot just outside the magnetic influence range. Roozen, Geerlings, Verhaar, Vliegenthart, New developments in near-field acoustic holography 3
4 Another issue is the strength of the magnetic field. The positioning robot would have to be positioned outside the field to prevent the robot to be sucked into the system To speed up the measurement we make use of an array of 16 condenser microphones. These microphones have been tested for operating properly inside a magnetic field. We need a dense spatial sampling but we do not want the microphones spaced too closely. This is why we use an array which is stepping along the axial axis while the microphone positions are interlaced. Only when we step in the tangential direction we rotate the array such that the microphones are perpendicular to the scanning surface. At the lower part of the system the patient table (not installed in the picture above but which is acoustically and operationally relevant) limits the full circular sampling. Figure 5 The 16 channel microphone line array inside an MRI scanner. 5. Results The whole procedure to measure one configuration involved measurement points over a surface of about 2 m 2 with a resolution of about 0.02 m. This took 4 hours. The distance to the wall was also about 0.02 m. From the measurements we can obtain the particle velocities at the imaging surface as can be seen in the picture below. We clearly see the central patient cover vibrating due to the gradient coil vibrations directly behind this cover. At the end of the duct we see that the flared cones are vibrating less since they are well isolated from the system. 4 NAG-Journaal
5 Figure 6: Surface vibrations at 670 Hz showing a clear circumferential vibration mode. Figure 7: Reconstructed field at 312 Hz. The above picture shows exactly what we had aimed for. Cover insulation at low frequencies is hard to achieve in an MRI system. With this analysis we can analyze which part of the acoustics goes through the cover and which part leaks through openings such as patient cooling holes. Roozen, Geerlings, Verhaar, Vliegenthart, New developments in near-field acoustic holography 5
6 6. Conclusions Lowering the acoustics of an MRI system would be beneficial to the patients, especially pediatric patients as to the clinical staff. Space inside the patient bore is expensive and due to all sorts of restrictions (i.e. magnetic field, RF signals and space limitations) acoustic insulation of the patient bore is difficult to improve. With the acoustic holography technique made applicable to MRI studies we have a powerful tool to study the behavior of cylindrical MRI covers systems. Due to the array technique a high spatial resolution can be obtained, whereas the duration of an analysis is limited to a relatively short period of time.
