“…There are numerous recent reviews highlighting the substantial benefits of UHF MRI in a clinical setting (Cho et al 2010b ; Beisteiner et al 2011 ; Duchin et al 2012 ; Plantinga et al 2014 ; Kraff et al 2014 ; Trattnig et al 2015 , 2016 ; Gizewski et al 2015 ). A number of studies have directly compared clinically utilized 1.5 and 3.0T field strengths to UHF MRI, showing UHF MRI results in an improved visualization across a number of patient groups and structures (Peters et al 2007 ; Cho et al 2008a , 2010b , 2010a , 2011a ; Hammond et al 2008a ; Kollia et al 2009 ; Yao et al 2009 ; Zwanenburg et al 2009 ; Abosch et al 2010 ; Blazejewska et al 2013 ; Chalifoux et al 2013 ; Derix et al 2014 ; Saranathan et al 2014 ; Cosottini et al 2015 ). Based on our own review, it is clear that UHF MRI is already frequently used to visualize subcortical structures in a clinical setting for populations such as Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, and Multiple Sclerosis.…”

Visualizing the Human Subcortex Using Ultra-high Field Magnetic Resonance Imaging

et al. 2018

With the recent increased availability of ultra-high field (UHF) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), substantial progress has been made in visualizing the human brain, which can now be done in extraordinary detail. This review provides an extensive overview of the use of UHF MRI in visualizing the human subcortex for both healthy and patient populations. The high inter-subject variability in size and location of subcortical structures limits the usability of atlases in the midbrain. Fortunately, the combined results of this review indicate that a large number of subcortical areas can be visualized in individual space using UHF MRI. Current limitations and potential solutions of UHF MRI for visualizing the subcortex are also discussed.
