The purpose of the present study is to evaluate the temperature increase due to radio-frequency (RF) exposure in Magnetic Resonance (MR) examinations, by combining electromagnetic/thermal simulations and B1 maps.

Objectives This study aimed to assess the performance of a "Silent" zero time of echo (ZTE) sequence for T1-weighted brain imaging using a 7 T MRI system. Methods The Silent sequence was evaluated qualitatively by two neuroradiologists, as well as quantitatively in terms of tissue contrast, homogeneity, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and acoustic...
