Dynamic Bo Shimming at 7 Tesla
Introduction Dynamic Shimming is a technique for obtaining optimal Bo field homogeneity over a volume by updating the shim coil and gradient currents for every slice in a multislice acquisition in real time [1, 2]. Dynamic shimming can produce better field homogeneity within each slice than global volume shimming methods. It can therefore reduce signal losses and geometric distortions and can b...
متن کاملAnalytic expressions for the ultimate intrinsic signal-to-noise ratio and ultimate intrinsic specific absorption rate in MRI.
The ultimate intrinsic signal-to-noise ratio is the highest possible signal-to-noise ratio, and the ultimate intrinsic specific absorption rate provides the lowest limit of the specific absorption rate for a given flip angle distribution. Analytic expressions for ultimate intrinsic signal-to-noise ratio and ultimate intrinsic specific absorption rate are obtained for arbitrary sample geometries...
متن کاملSpecific absorption rate monitor for in-vivo parallel transmission at 7 Tesla
When using a transmit array at high field, it is well established that high local specific absorption rate (SAR) values can occur [1]. In order to guarantee patient safety without harsh limitations to in-vivo transmit-SENSE [2] applications, subtle SAR monitoring is therefore necessary. In the recent past, a comprehensive solution involving pre-calculated B1-field-maps and local pickup-coils wa...
متن کاملSAR and Temperature Evaluations for B1 Shimming at 7 tesla
Introduction In high field MRI, the increased interactions between the electromagnetic waves and the biological tissues may give rise to heat and thermal hazards. This is clearly apparent for multi-transmit array applications where the electromagnetic fields are heavily manipulated in the subject to be imaged. In this work we provide complete 3D predictions of the B1 + fields, MRI images, energ...
