🔹 What happens if helium gas comes out of an MRI machine? This is called a “Quench”. 🔹 What is a Quench? In an MRI machine, liquid helium is used to keep the superconducting magnet extremely cold (around –269° C). If suddenly the liquid helium changes into gas and escapes from the system, it is called a Quench. 🔹 Why does it happen? Due to technical fault in the machine Manually pressing the "quench button" in an emergency Sometimes it can happen spontaneously 🔹 What dangers can occur? 1. Ox
