Abstract

T1-weighted images of the human brain obtained with the MDEFT sequence at 8 T are presented. These images are characterized by an excellent contrast and good signal to noise ratio. Importantly, results were obtained with adiabatic spin inversion and demonstrate that such pulses can be used even in the ultra high frequency (> 300 MHz) range. It is thus possible to obtain high quality results at this field strength without violating SAR guidelines.
