Overview
This is a pilot study to demonstrate human brain imaging with a new portable 0.7 Tesla (T) MRI brain scanner recently developed at the CMRR.
Interventions
- Device 0.7 T MRI
Our scanner is based on a unique high-temperature superconducting magnet that is highly compact, weighs only 400 kg, and requires no cryogens. Its innovative design allows the subject to sit normally with sightlines to the room and produces low acoustic noise during scanning.
Primary outcome measures
- Image Quality [Time frame: Day 1]
