In MRI scanners, which consequence occurs when rapid magnet quenching is non-uniform?

A)Localized cryogen boil-off spikes
B)Increased radio frequency interference
C)Helium pre-compression cavitation effects
D)Superconducting magnet winding delamination

💡 Explanation

Non-uniform quenching creates stress concentrations, so the Lorentz force exceeds the magnet's structural capacity due to differential thermal contraction acting as the trigger. This leads to conductor movement, therefore winding delamination occurs, rather than even loss of cooling or RF noise increase, which do not directly attack coil integrity.
