← ScienceWhich risk increases as magnetic flux rises rapidly in MRI gradient coils?
A)RF pulse signal distortion
B)Eddy current-induced heating✓
C)Cryogen quench propagation speed
D)Scanner acoustic waveform deflection
💡 Explanation
Eddy current-induced heating risk rises in MRI gradient coils because a rapid change in magnetic flux induces circulating currents via electromagnetic induction within the conductive components causing resistive heating, therefore increasing thermal load which is a major concern rather than purely signal distortion from RF pulses.
