Abstract

MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging) scanners has major role in diagnosing complex diseases. Super conducting magnet
was one of the essential parts in MRI scanner, which dissipates heat while in running condition. So an external cooling system
has been used to cool the superconducting magnet. In existing case liquid helium was used as the cooling agent for cooling the
super conducting magnet. However the cost of liquid helium was high and it is very difficult to handle because it is effortlessly
exposable. In this paper we propose a cooling system for MRI scanner based on LASER Technology. Laser Cooling System
(LCS) is a resonant technology used for cooling an object to an absolutely quite low temperature by around 40kelvin. The
proposed cooling system for MRI scanner using laser provide optimal cooling and reduce cost and handling complexity.
