Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating brain disorder that afflicts millions worldwide with
no effective treatment. Currently, AD progression has primarily been characterized by …

Limited detection power has been a bottleneck for subject-specific functional MRI (fMRI)
studies; however, the higher signal-to-noise ratio afforded by ultra-high magnetic fields (≥ 7 …

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become an indispensable tool for
investigating the human brain. However, the inherently poor signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) of …

Purpose The SNR at the center of a spherical phantom of known electrical properties was
measured in quasi‐identical experimental conditions as a function of magnetic field strength …

Hierarchical temporal dynamics are a fundamental computational property of the brain;
however, there are no whole brain, noninvasive investigations into timescales of neural …

Purpose To improve whole‐brain SNR at 7 Tesla, a novel 32‐element hybrid human head
array coil was developed, constructed, and tested. Methods Our general design strategy is …

This paper reviews the field of multiple or parallel radiofrequency (RF) transmission for
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Currently the use of ultra-high field (UHF) MRI at 7 tesla …

Purpose: Parallel transmit technology for MRI at 7 tesla will significantly benefit from high
performance transmit arrays that offer high transmit efficiency and low mutual coupling …

Resting state functional connectivity refers to the temporal correlations between
spontaneous hemodynamic signals obtained using functional magnetic resonance imaging …

Purpose To test an integrated “AC/DC” array approach at 7T, where B0 inhomogeneity
poses an obstacle for functional imaging, diffusion‐weighted MRI, MR spectroscopy, and …
