The development of MRI systems operating at or above 7 T has provided researchers with a
new window into the human body, yielding improved imaging speed, resolution and signal …

Abstract The Human Connectome Project (HCP) relies primarily on three complementary
magnetic resonance (MR) methods. These are: 1) resting state functional MR imaging …

Following early efforts in applying nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to study
biological processes in intact systems, and particularly since the introduction of 4 T human …

Ultra high field MR imaging (≥ 7 T) of deeply located targets in the body is facing some
radiofrequency‐field related challenges: interference patterns, reduced penetration depth …

This paper reviews the field of multiple or parallel radiofrequency (RF) transmission for
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Currently the use of ultra-high field (UHF) MRI at 7 tesla …

With more than 40 installed MR systems worldwide operating at 7 Tesla or higher, ultra‐high‐
field (UHF) imaging has been established as a platform for clinically oriented research in …

Over 20 000 MR systems are currently installed worldwide and, although the majority
operate at magnetic fields of 1.5 T and below (ie about 70%), experience with 3‐T (in high …

Since the introduction of 4 T human systems in three academic laboratories circa 1990,
rapid progress in imaging and spectroscopy studies in humans at 4 T and animal model …

Ultrahigh magnetic fields offer significantly higher signal-to-noise ratio, and several
