Magnetic
particle imaging (MPI) is a new tomographic imaging modality that directly
and quantitatively images iron oxide nanoparticle concentration without
anatomical background signal. It combines high sensitivity with the ability
of fast volumetric imaging. Current demonstrators either provide fast imaging
or a large field of view. Here, a solution is proposed, that allows for both,
fast imaging with large FOVs.
