The development of MRI systems operating at or above 7 T has provided researchers with a
new window into the human body, yielding improved imaging speed, resolution and signal …

Access to scanners for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is typically limited by cost and by
infrastructure requirements. Here, we report the design and testing of a portable prototype …

In magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), spatial field gradients are applied along each axis to
encode the location of the nuclear spin in the frequency domain. During recent years, the …

Perhaps more than any other “-omics” endeavor, the accuracy and level of detail obtained
from mapping the major connection pathways in the living human brain with diffusion MRI …

Purpose We add user‐controllable direct currents (DC) to the individual elements of a 32‐
channel radio‐frequency (RF) receive array to provide B0 shimming ability while preserving …

Permanent magnet arrays offer several attributes attractive for the development of a low-cost
portable MRI scanner for brain imaging. They offer the potential for a relatively lightweight …

Purpose As the premiere modality for brain imaging, MRI could find wider applicability if
lightweight, portable systems were available for siting in unconventional locations such as …

Purpose Design, implement, integrate, and characterize a customized coil system that
allows for generating spatial encoding magnetic fields (SEMs) in a highly‐flexible fashion …

Spatial encoding in MRI is conventionally achieved by the application of switchable linear
encoding fields. The general concept of the recently introduced PatLoc (Parallel Imaging …

Abstract Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopic Imaging (MRSI) is a powerful technique that
can map the metabolic profile in the brain non-invasively. Extracranial lipid contamination …
