Benefits of higher static magnetic fields in MR
The most common magnetic field strength used in clinical practice is 1.5 tesla, although field strengths of 0.5T and 3.0T are also widely used. The main benefit of increasing the static field strength is an increase in signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the resulting images, since this scales roughly linearly with field strength. Over the past […]
