An intense international effort to improve the resolution of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for studying the human brain has culminated in an ultra-high resolution 7 Tesla scanner that records up to ...

This study explores the structure of lymphatic vessels in the brain by injecting gadolinium in a 7T MRI scanner. The researchers need a total of 20 healthy subjects. The time period is from now to the ...

AUBURN, Ala., Sept. 16, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Gopikrishna Deshpande wants to see the brain in action. How does information between billions of neurons flow within this cerebral superhighway? What ...

Hospital MRI scanners, using 3 Tesla magnets, provide poor spatial resolution in brain imaging. More recent 7T MRIs are better but used mainly in the rare research lab. A team led by UC Berkeley ...

Previously, 7T MRI scanners have suffered from signal blackspots in crucial parts of the brain, most commonly in the temporal lobes, where most cases of epilepsy arise.

Hospital MRI scanners, using 3 Tesla magnets, provide poor spatial resolution in brain imaging. More recent 7T MRIs are better but used mainly in the rare research lab. Scientists have now ...

You can see this in the image below - whilst some of the image processing likely differed between the 3T, 7T, and 11.7T images, you do get a sense of how much of a step forward this new scanner is.

Boulant hopes to adapt some of the new ingredients in the NexGen 7T - in particular, redesigned gradient coils - to eventually achieve even better resolution with the 11.7 Tesla MRI scanner.

Current MRI scanners have powerful magnets with a strength of 3T. Scanners with stronger 7T magnets can identify some subtle abnormalities that are not found on a conventional MRI scan, Duncan noted.

A new MRI technique can help find hard-to-detect brain lesions that are causing epileptic seizures The technique rings the brain with multiple powerful transmitters, to enhance the image and ...
