Progress in high field MRI at the University of Florida

MAGMA. 2002 Jan;13(3):152-7. doi: 10.1007/BF02678590.

Abstract

In this article we report on progress in high magnetic field MRI at the University of Florida in support of our new 750MHz wide bore and 11.7T/40cm MR instruments. The primary emphasis is on the associated rf technology required, particularly high frequency volume and phased array coils. Preliminary imaging results at 750MHz are presented. Our results imply that the pursuit of even higher fields seems warranted.
