Ultra High Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging

by Lawrence J. Berliner, Pierre-Marie Robitaille, Lawrence Berliner

Book Overview

From the early examples of what was to be called MRI, extending the te- nique to higher fields than those of less than 0. 1 T used in the first large-volume instruments was a goal, but the way there was unclear. The practical success of large superconducting magnets was a surprise, and the astonishment continued as they developed fields from 0. 3 T to 0. 6 T to 1. 5 T, and even more, up to the now common 3T systems, and a few 4T machines, and now...
