For an MRI electromagnet cooled by liquid helium, which consequence results should the active cooling system fail?

A)Quench causes rapid magnetic collapse
B)Reduced coil resistance reduces field
C)Increased eddy currents improve SNR
D)Current stabilizes through thermal runaway

💡 Explanation

A quench event leads to rapid magnetic collapse because the Meissner effect ceases and the superconductivity is lost at higher temperatures, therefore resistance appears suddenly, rather than stabilizing the field.
