The large spatial inhomogeneity in transmit B 1 field (B 1 + ) observable in human MR images
at high static magnetic fields (B 0 ) severely impairs image quality. To overcome this effect …

The implementation of a “fast, automatic shimming technique by mapping along projections”
(FASTMAP) on a 2.1‐Tesla whole‐body system is described. The method provides a …

A large body of published work shows that proton (hydrogen 1 [ 1 H]) magnetic resonance (MR)
spectroscopy has evolved from a research tool into a clinical neuroimaging modality. …

Improvements in B 0 mapping and shimming were achieved by measuring the static field
information in multiple subsequent echoes generated by an asymmetric echo‐planar readout …

Localized in vivo 1 H NMR spectroscopy was performed with 2-ms echo time in the rat brain
at 9.4 T. Frequency domain analysis with LCModel showed that the in vivo spectra can be …

In vivo 1 H NMR spectra from the human brain were measured at 7 T. Ultrashort echo‐time
STEAM was used to minimize J‐modulation and signal attenuation caused by the shorter T 2 …

A comprehensive comparative study of metabolite quantification from the human brain was
performed on the same 10 subjects at 4T and 7T using MR scanners with identical consoles, …

Recently, the spin‐echo full‐intensity acquired localized (SPECIAL) spectroscopy technique
was proposed to unite the advantages of short TEs on the order of milliseconds (ms) with …

Purpose To examine relationships between specific energy absorption rate (SAR) and
temperature distributions in the human head during radio frequency energy deposition in MRI. …

We developed a short‐echo‐time (TE) sequence for proton localized spectroscopy by combining
a 1D add‐subtract scheme with a doubly slice‐selective spin‐echo (SE) sequence. The …
