Summary:An imaging device combining magnetic particle imaging and magnetic resonance imaging is disclosed. The imaging device combining magnetic particle imaging and magnetic resonance imaging according to an embodiment may include: a measuring head in which a through hole for receiving a sample is formed and an excitation coil and a detection coil are installed; a main magnetic field generating unit in which two magnet arrays, in which a plurality of small magnets are arranged in a ring shape, are spaced apart; a rotating unit rotating one of the two magnet arrays in the main magnetic field generating unit; and a control unit driving the rotating unit to correspond to a magnetic particle imaging mode and a magnetic resonance imaging mode when the measuring head is located within the spaced area of the main magnetic field generating unit. Accordingly, MRI and MPI, which were previously measured with separate equipment, can be imaged with one equipment. 자성 입자 영상화 및 자기 공명 영상화를 결합한 영상 장치가 개시된다. 실시예에 따른 자성 입자 영상화 및 자기 공명 영상화를 결합한 영상 장치는, 시료가 수용되는 관통공이 형성되고, 여기 코일 및 검출 코일이 설치되는 측정헤드, 복수의 소형 자석들이 링 형으로 배열된 두 개의 자석 어레이들이 이격 배치된 주자기장 생성부, 주자기장 생성부의 두 개의 자석 어레이들 중 하나를 회전시키는 회전부 및 측정헤드가 주자기장 생성부의 이격 영역 내에 위치되면, 자성 입자 영상화 모드 및 자성 공명 영상화 모드에 상응하도록 회전부를 구동시키는 제어부를 포함할 수 있다.
