Differences between the transmitted B1 fields and the specific absorption rates at 3T and 7T. Differences between the transmitted B1 fields and the specific absorption rates at 3T and 7T. A, Model of a human head placed in a simple quadrature-driven birdcage head coil. B and C, Simulated transmitted B1 field (B1+) for 3T (B) and 7T (C). At 7T, wave-propagation effects cause more severe variation of the B1 field than is seen at 3T. D and E, Simulated SAR in the head model for 3T and 7T (in Watts per kilogram). SAR simulations show increased RF power deposition and greater spatial heterogeneity at 7T than at 3T. At 7T, one must contend with 2 physical limitations, the greater inhomogeneity in the transmit B1 field and the increased SAR deposition. These simulations were performed by Dr Bei Zhang at the Icahn School of Medicine, Mount Sinai, New York. A commercial finite-difference time domain software, CST Microwave Studio (Computer Simulation Technology, Darmstadt, Germany), was used to simulate electric and magnetic fields within the head for “Donna” in the Computer Simulation Technology virtual family. The B1 map was obtained by using 1W for the input power. The resolution of Donna is 1.875 × 1.875 × 2 mm3. P. Balchandani, and T.P.
