Table 1.

Spatial resolution.

B (T) Resolution (mm3)
3 T anatomical images 1 × 1 × 1
3 T functional MRI (fMRI) and perfusion contrast 2 × 2 × 2a
7 T anatomical images 0.5 × 0.5 × 0.5
7 T fMRI 1 × 1 × 1a

From Ref. (1).

aSpatial resolution is inferior to anatomical because the small signal changes, only a few percent of the available signal. The use of higher resolutions generally reduces both image signal-to-noise ratio and contrast-to-noise ratio.
