Article Abstract
Purpose: Magnetic susceptibility (Δχ) alterations have shown association with myocardial infarction (MI) iron deposition, yet there remains limited understanding of the relationship between relaxation rates and susceptibility or the effect of magnetic field strength. Hence, Δχ and in MI were compared at 3T and 7T.
Methods: Subacute MI was induced by coronary artery ligation in male Yorkshire swine. 3D multiecho gradient echo imaging was performed at 1-week postinfarction at 3T and 7T. Quantitative susceptibility mapping images were reconstructed using a morphology-enabled dipole inversion. maps and quantitative susceptibility mapping were generated to assess the relationship between , Δχ, and field strength. Infarct histopathology was investigated.
Results: Magnetic susceptibility was not significantly different across field strengths (7T: 126.8 ± 41.7 ppb; 3T: 110.2 ± 21.0 ppb, P = NS), unlike (7T: 247.0 ± 14.8 Hz; 3T: 106.1 ± 6.5 Hz, P < .001). Additionally, infarct Δχ and were significantly higher than remote myocardium. Magnetic susceptibility at 7T versus 3T had a significant association (β = 1.02, R = 0.82, P < .001), as did (β = 2.35, R = 0.98, P < .001). Infarct pathophysiology and iron deposition were detected through histology and compared with imaging findings.
Conclusion: showed dependence and Δχ showed independence of field strength. Histology validated the presence of iron and supported imaging findings.

Purpose: To investigate the images and treatment differences for Type IIIa atlantoaxial rotary dislocation (AARD) by comparing the imaging characteristics of patients with Type III and Type IIIa AARD.
Methods: The present study retrospectively analyzed a cohort of 35 patients who underwent posterior C1-C2 intra-articular fusion due to AARD from our hospital database. Among them, 23 patients were diagnosed with Type III AARD, while the remaining 12 patients were diagnosed with Type IIIa AARD.

Background Elevated brain iron is a potential marker for neurodegeneration, but its role in predicting onset of mild cognitive impairment (MCI) and prospective cognitive trajectories remains unclear. Purpose To investigate how brain iron and amyloid-β (Aβ) levels, measured using quantitative susceptibility mapping (QSM) MRI and PET, help predict MCI onset and cognitive decline. Materials and Methods In this prospective study conducted between January 2015 and November 2022, cognitively unimpaired older adults underwent baseline QSM MRI.

Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytical technique with a wide range of applications. To support the analysis of diverse and complex samples, various NMR tools and accessories have been created. Three-dimensional (3D) printing is an underutilized production method for NMR hardware, mainly due to the lack of H NMR background-free resins.

Accurate brain signal recording and precise electrode placement are critical for the success of neuromodulation therapies such as deep brain stimulation (DBS). Addressing these challenges requires deep brain electrodes that provide high-quality, stable recordings while remaining compatible with high-resolution medical imaging modalities like magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Moreover, such electrodes shall be cost-effective, easy to manufacture, and patient-compatible.

To investigate the genetic determinants of fat distribution across anatomical sites and their implications for health outcomes. We analyzed neck-to-knee MRI data from the UK Biobank ( = 37,589) to measure fat at various locations and used Mendelian randomization to assess effects on 26 obesity-related diseases and 94 biomarkers from FinnGen and other consortia. We identified genetic loci associated with 10 fat depots: abdominal subcutaneous adipose tissue ( = 2 loci), thigh subcutaneous adipose tissue (25), thigh intermuscular adipose tissue (15), visceral adipose tissue (7), liver proton density fat fraction (PDFF) (8), pancreas PDFF (11), paraspinal adipose tissue (9), pelvic bone marrow fat (28), thigh bone marrow fat (27), and vertebrae bone marrow fat (5).
