✦ Synopsis


1 on human magnetic resonance imaging at 8 T. The authors present a transaxial image of the human head acquired at 8 T in a plane above the ventricles, from which they 'demonstrate that clinical imaging will be possible at 8 T and that reasonable quality head images can be obtained'. In my opinion this statement, based on a limited number of experiments, is premature; more experimental evidence is needed to support such a statement. The enhanced signal intensity at the central

In this work, we present the first human magnetic resonance image (MRI) obtained at ultrahigh field strengths (8 T). We demonstrate that clinical imaging will be possible at 8 T and that reasonable quality head images can be obtained at this field strength. Most importantly, we emphasize that the po

Lung ventilation imaging using inhaled oxygen as a contrast medium was performed using both a 0.2 and a 1.5 T clinical magnetic resonance (MR) scanner in eight volunteers. Signal-to-noise-ratios (SNRs) of the ventilation images as well as T1 values of the lung acquired with inhalation of 100% oxygen

A new theoretical method is presented for designing frequency responses of double-tuned, low-pass birdcage coils. This method is based on Kirchhoff's equations through a nonsymmetric matrix algorithm and extended through a modification of the corresponding eigenvalue system from a single-tuned mode.
