Abstract

Abstract:

The progress of ultrahigh-field magnetic resonance imaging(UHFMRI)provides meaningful technologies for the advancement of biomedical and diagnostic MRI.The paper reviews the development status of UHF-MR(≥7T). This comprises a novel whole-body magnet design utilizing high temperature superconductor; an optimized radiofrequency coil setup for proton measurement in the brain; and a high-performance gradient set.UFHMRI can reveal the details of nerves, neurovascular, cardiovascular, musculoskeletal, kidney, liver, and ocular systems, as well as other organs and tissues, and has a great value of potential clinical uses, with implications for neuroscience, neurology, radiology, cardiology, oncology, nephrology, ophthalmology and other clinical fields.

Key words: Ultra-high field MRI, Neuroscience, Brain disorders
