About Mountaineers and Explorers: Frontiers of Ultrahigh Field Magnetic Resonance — •Thoralf Niendorf — Max Delbrück Center for Molecular Medicine in the Helmholtz Association, Berlin, Germany — Charite - University Medicine, Berlin, Germany

Progress in the understanding of ultrahigh field magnetic resonance (UHF-MR) physics provides meaningful technologies for the advancement of biomedical and diagnostic MRI. The argument for moving 7 T MRI into clinical applications is more compelling than ever. Images from these instruments have revealed new aspects of anatomy, function and physio-metabolic characteristics of the neurovascular and cardiovascular systems, as well as other organs with unparalleled detail. With 7 T human MRI now present in the clinic, there is increasing interest in exploring ever higher magnetic field strengths. That makes this a perfect moment to review the current state of UHF-MR. The presentation surveys the development of novel methodology and technology, frontier human studies, breakthrough clinical applications and future directions of UHF-MR. At the moment some of these new concepts and clinical applications are merely of proof-of-principle nature and vision, but they are compelling enough to drive the field forward. The speaker hopes to engage the interest of physicists, basic researchers and applied scientists, and particularly to attract young scientists and new entrants into the field. The presentation will convey the seeds of this vision and inspire you - as it has the speaker and his team - to become pioneers in these amazingly promising new areas of MR physics and biomedical research.
