Abstract

The results published in the article Gradient‐Induced Acoustic and Magnetic Field Fluctuations in a 4T Whole‐Body MR Imager by Wu et al. (Magn Reson Med 2000;44:532–536) appear to be consistent with the response of a time‐stationary linear system. Since a linear system is more simply described than a nonlinear system, the authors are urged to reanalyze their data to test the linear‐system hypothesis. Magn Reson Med 46:207, 2001.
