Absorbance is the negative logarithm of the percent transmittance divided by 100. A spectrophotometer can be set to measure either the percent transmittance or the absorbance of a solution. In lab, you will be using a spectrophotometer called the Spectronic 20 or Spec 20 to measure absorbance.
Specific Absorption Rate. (SAR) The Specific Absorption Rate is defined as the RF power absorbed per unit of mass of an object, and is measured in watts per kilogram (W/kg). The SAR describes the potential for heating of the patient's tissue due to the application of the RF energy necessary to produce the MR signal.
