Abstract
High-field human magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems developed over the recent years have contributed significantly to the field of functional MRI and multinuclear spectroscopy. As more experience is gained, it has become apparent that high-field systems, especially those at 3.0 T, possess significant advantages in the clinical setting over conventional MRI systems. High-field MRI is promising as an all-in-one system for both structural and functional assessments. This review summarizes the exciting features of clinical imaging based on our cumulative 6-year experience on various 3.0 T systems.Keywords
