Ultra High-Field (UHF) MRI with field strengths of 7T and above provides crucial improvement over 3T in spatial resolution and sensitivity for deciphering subtle features that are <1mm in size and could thus allow mapping of intricate detail. There are substantial hurdles to surmount, however, before the promised increases in performance for UHF MRI are fully realized. The goal of the Winkler lab is to develop technology for the UHF MRI in a variety of anatomies, and ultimately its clinical applicability. Areas of research for the successful applicant(s) include RF coil building and manipulation of the electromagnetic fields in the scanner, among others.
