Abstract<\/p>\n

PURPOSE:<\/p>\n

\n

The purpose of this study is to safely acquire the first human head images at 10.5T.<\/p>\n

METHODS:<\/p>\n

To ensure safety of subjects, we validated the electromagnetic simula-tion model of our coil. We obtained quantitative agreement between simulated and experimental B<\/span>1<\/span>+<\/span>\u00a0and specific absorption rate (SAR). Using the validated coil model, we calculated radiofrequency power levels to safely image human subjects. We con-ducted all experiments and imaging sessions in a controlled radiofrequency safety lab and the whole-body 10.5T scanner in the Center for Magnetic Resonance Research<\/p>\n

RESULTS:<\/p>\n

Quantitative agreement between the simulated and experimental results was obtained including S-parameters, B+1 maps, and SAR. We calculated peak 10 g average SAR using 4 different realistic human body models for a quadrature excita-tion and demonstrated that the peak 10 g SAR variation between subjects was less than 30%. We calculated safe power limits based on this set and used those limits to acquire T2- and T\u22172-weighted images of human subjects at 10.5T.<\/p>\n

CONCLUSIONS:<\/p>\n

In this study, we acquired the first in vivo human head images at 10.5T using an 8-channel transmit\/receive coil. We implemented and expanded a previously proposed workflow to validate the electromagnetic simulation model of the 8-channel transmit\/receive coil. Using the validated coil model, we calculated radiofrequency power levels to safely image human subjects.<\/p>\n
