Behavioral Effects of High-Strength Static Magnetic Fields on Rats

Behavioral effects of high-strength static magnetic fields on rats.

Advances in magnetic resonance imaging are driving the development of more powerful and higher-resolution machines with high-strength static magnetic fields. The behavioral effects of high-strength magnetic fields are largely uncharacterized, although restraint within a 9.4 T magnetic field is sufficient to induce a conditioned taste aversion (CTA) and induce brainstem expression of c-Fos in ra...

Behavioral effects on rats of high strength magnetic fields generated by a resistive electromagnet.

It has been reported previously that exposure to static high magnetic fields of 7 T or above in superconducting magnets has behavioral effects on rats. In particular, magnetic field exposure acutely but transiently suppressed rearing and induced walking in tight circles; the direction of circular locomotion was dependent on the rats' orientation within the magnet. Furthermore, when magnet expos...

Sex and estrous cycle differences in the behavioral effects of high-strength static magnetic fields: role of ovarian steroids.

Advances in magnetic resonance imaging are driving the development of higher-resolution machines equipped with high-strength static magnetic fields (MFs). The behavioral effects of high-strength MFs are largely uncharacterized, although in male rats, exposure to 7 T or above induces locomotor circling and leads to a conditioned taste avoidance (CTA) if paired with a novel taste. Here, the effec...
