← ScienceWhich risk escalates within an MRI machine when exceeding gradient limits?
A)Elevated radio frequency heating✓
B)Quench-induced helium evaporation events
C)Increased static magnetic field strength
D)Unexpected superconducting coil resistance
💡 Explanation
Reaching gradient limits can induce peripheral nerve stimulation because rapid changes in magnetic fields generate electric fields following Faraday's law of induction producing tissue heating; therefore RF heating risk increases rather than field strength, quenches, or coil resistance.
