Table 3.

Overview of basic necessary parameters to quantify applied magnetic fields.

Symbol Unit Description
Magnetic flux density B Tesla Intensity of the magnetic field
Pulse duration Δt s Duration of a single pulse or pulse train
Pulse repetition
frequency
f Hz How often a pulse or pulse train is repeated per second
Field frequency ff Hz Main frequency of the signal, can be estimated using the zero-crossings, or, better, by calculating the frequency spectrum of a single pulse or pulse train
Pulse gradient δB/δt T/s Maximum slope of the magnetic pulse. It correlates with the induced electrical current in the tissue
Pulse signal (Plot) - - Plot of the pulse signal, includes all of the mentioned parameters, and can be used as a replacement
