- TSD221-MRI MR Safe fully-pneumatic respiration transducer measures subject respiration (thoracic or abdominal) in the MRI
Convert biological signals for analysis with MP system or AcqKnowledge®
The TSD201 connects to the RSP100C Respiration Amplifier to record respiratory effort. The transducer measures the changes in thoracic or abdominal circumference that occur as the subject breathes. The design presents minimal resistance to movement and is extremely unobtrusive. Due to its novel construction, the TSD201 can measure arbitrarily slow to very fast respiration patterns with no loss in signal amplitude, while maintaining excellent linearity and minimal hysteresis. The conductance of the gauge is linear with applied stretch to belt. As belt length increases, voltage output (reflected at amplifier output) increases, as gauge conductance increases and gauge resistance decreases.
The transducer comes with a 3-meter cable and an adjustable Velcro strap to fit a wide range of subjects. Additional straps available (RX-STRAP-RSP) to allow for disinfection between subjects without any down time—use extra straps with transducer while washing previously worn straps.

Many studies use hand dynamometry to objectively quantify exerted effort during experiments most commonly related to the study of motivation.
We’ll focus on this topic and go over everything you need to know to record dynamometry data in the MRI or in the lab. Topics include
– Calibrating for maximum voluntary contraction (MVC)
– Real-time access to the dynamometer signal by third-party applications
– How researchers have used this equipment
– Creating a visual task that gives feedback on exerted effort as well as rewards to the participant
