Excitation (Car Engine)

External electrical energy applied to a transducer for its proper operation.


Excitation (Huntingtons Disease)

One of the responses caused by specific neurotransmitters binding to receptors on a neuron. Excitation increases the probability that neurotransmitters will be released by the neuron.


Excitation (MRI)

Delivering (inducing, transferring) energy into the "spinning" nuclei via radio-frequency pulse(s), which puts the nuclei into a higher energy state. By producing a net transverse magnetization an MRI system can observe a response from the excited system.
