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 …

Purpose: To design, evaluate, and apply a 2D 16‐channel transmit/receive (TX/RX) coil
array tailored for cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) at 7.0 T. Materials and …

Purpose Higher signal to noise ratio (SNR) and improved contrast have been demonstrated
at ultra‐high magnetic fields (≥ 7 Tesla [T]) in multiple targets, often with multi‐channel …

Objective To consider potential clinical needs, technical solutions and research promises of
ultrahigh-field strength cardiovascular MR (CMR). Methods A literature review is given …

The potential value of ultrahigh field (UHF) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and
spectroscopy to biomedical research and in clinical applications drives the development of …

We report the first comparison of cardiovascular magnetic resonance imaging (CMR) at 1.5
T, 3 T and 7 T field strengths using steady state free precession (SSFP) and fast low angle …

Eight‐and sixteen‐channel transceive stripline/TEM body arrays were compared at 7 T (297
MHz) both in simulation and experiment. Despite previous demonstrations of similar arrays …

Objectives To implement, examine, and compare three multichannel transmit/receive coil
configurations for cardiovascular MR (CMR) at 7T. Methods Three radiofrequency transmit …

A growing number of reports eloquently speak about explorations into cardiac magnetic
resonance (CMR) at ultrahigh magnetic fields (B0⩾ 7.0 T). Realizing the progress, promises …
