Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Interest in advanced neuroimaging is growing and is certain to continue; new and faster sequences, better image quality, higher magnetic fields, and improved models of diffusion, perfusion, and functional connectivity are in constant development. The purpose of this article is to highlight recent advances in neuroimaging from two aspects: (1) those advances directly benefited by increases in field strength (increased T1, signal-to-noise ratio, magnetic susceptibility-sensitivity, and chemical shift) and how the increased signal-to-noise ratio can be used to trade off for other advantages and (2) those advances made in response to attempts to try to reduce the inherent artifacts encountered at higher field strengths (eg, reducing specific radiofrequency absorption in tissue and magnetic susceptibility).
