System Overview
expiration gate delay and width. Two auxiliary gate input channels allow the user to
synchronize gating to other external devices such as a ventilator and/or the scanner's
imaging sequence. A fiber optic output provides control for the air Heater Module.
The air Heater System supplies warm air in the magnet bore. A Fan Module located in
the low fringe field of the magnet delivers cool room air to the Heater Module located
near the magnet bore. The ERT Control/Gating Module, using the measured value of
rectal temperature and a user defined set point, controls current to the heating element
in the Heater Module to regulate the animal's temperature.
The following options are available for use with the Model 1030:
invasive blood
pressure (IBP) measuring systolic, diastolic and mean arterial pressure, pulse oximetry
using fiber optic sensors to measure oxygen saturation (SpO2), heart rate and pulse
distension, fiber optic temperature (FOT) to measure rectal or skin temperature, an
ultra-miniature fiber optic pressure (FOP) system with fiber optic sensors to make
minimally invasive pressure measurements, capnography measuring end-tidal and
minimally inspired CO
, a Water Bed Heater System to control the animal's temperature
2
and a ventilator to regulate respiration and to control the tidal gas volume delivered to
the animal. All of these options are covered in later chapters of this manual.
