The Status and Challenge of the Domestic Manufacturing of Superconduct Magnetic Resonance Instruments in China

Abstract

Magnetic resonance (MR) plays an essential role in chemical analysis and medical imaging. The reliable MR instrument is a prerequisite for MR related research. Foreign instrument companies have monopolized the MR instrument supply in China for a long time. Recently, the situation has witnessed impressive improvement due to progress made by Chinese domestic companies and institutions in developing and manufacturing MR instruments. This paper surveyed and reviewed the status and challenges of the domestic manufacturing of MR instruments in China.
