Safety and image quality at 7T MRI for deep brain stimulation systems: Ex vivo study with lead-only and full-systems.
Ultra-high field MRI at 7 T can produce much better visualization of sub-cortical structures compared to lower field, which can greatly help target verification as well as overall treatment monitoring for patients with deep brain stimulation (DBS) implants. However, use of 7 T MRI for such patients...
