The laboratory has several pieces of specialized magnetic resonance spectroscopy and imaging instrumentation on the RIT campus. Among these are a 500 MHz NMR spectrometer with micro imaging accessory, a low frequency electron paramagnetic resonance (LFEPR) spectrometer, an Overhauser magnetometer with base station, a three-axis magnetometer, and a radio frequency imaging coil test bridge. Other pieces of instrumentation are available through our consortium of experts in industry and academia. This instrumentation includes whole body magnetic resonance imaging systems. The laboratory has a library of specialized magnetic resonance and magnetics software that allows us to perform some unique analyses.

 
The laboratory was founded in 1985 as an area of excellence on the RIT campus. The laboratory initially specialized in the design and construction of high efficiency coils for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of extremities. It developed and patented the single turn solenoid style coil. Other initial areas of specialization included multispectral tissue classification, MRI of materials, and the design of magnetic resonance instrumentation. The laboratory evolved into its present consortium of scientists and engineers from academia and industry with magnetic resonance expertise. This consortium gives us a broad spectrum of scientific and engineering capabilities. We offer a variety of services through consulting and sponsored project arrangements.
