Sir Peter Mansfield (Londra, 9 ottobre 1933 – Londra, 9 febbraio 2017) è stato un fisico inglese.Ha ottenuto nel 2003 il premio Nobel per la medicina insieme a Paul C. Lauterbur per le sue scoperte sull'imaging a risonanza magnetica, o MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging). È stato professore presso l'Università di Nottingham. Il contributo di Mansfield consiste nell'aver mostrato come i segnali radio provenienti dall'MRI possono essere matematicamente analizzati, trasformandoli in un'immagine utile a fini diagnostici. Inoltre Mansfield ha scoperto la tecnica di echo-planar imaging, in grado di rendere possibile l'ottenimento veloce di immagini dalla MRI fino al punto da visualizzare immagini in movimento degli organi umani, come per esempio del cuore, e lo sviluppo della risonanza magnetica funzionale.
