a Photographs of an in-vivo setup at 1.5 T using a commercial eight-channel receive array coil with ceramic blocks (εr ~ 4500) placed around the wrist of a healthy volunteer. b T1-weighted wrist images without blocks, and c with blocks. The SNR is approximately 45% higher with the blocks over an ROI comprising the entire imaged volume. The power level from the transmitter coil was 40% lower with blocks compared to without blocks.
