Normalized distribution (base-10 Log scale) of local SAR within the FOV during unaccelerated parallel excitations with current patterns optimized for global SAR. For each value of the main magnetic field strength, spatial distribution of ultimate intrinsic local SAR is compared for different sizes of the modeled sphere during excitation of the center of k-space.
