Figure 9

High resolution TSE images of human carotid artery specimens in saline at 3T (a) and 7T (b-d). Slice thickness is 1 mm, in-plane resolution is 80 μm (a, b), 40 μm (c) and 53 μm (d). Histology result for the samples used at 7T images is shown in (e). 3T(a) and 7T(b) images are acquired with the same pulse sequence parameters except for a 6.5% increase in bandwidth at 7T due to system constraints. The mean SNR improvement inside the annotated squares in (b) is 5.85 compared to (a).
