3458. Enhancing
B1+ at 7T MRI by combining a compact metamaterial devised from
artificial dielectric with a TIAMO-like acquisition
S. K. Maurya, R. Schmidt
Weizmann Institute of Science, Rehovot, Israel
Impact: We demonstrated a new compact and thin AD and
metamaterial configuration that does not require lumped
elements for 7T MRI. Importantly, we showed that the use of
B1-shim can further increase the achieved enhancement.
