In vivo human brain MRI of the basal ganglia at 11.7 Tesla field strength, evaluated in 2 healthy volunteers.
11.7-T MRI achieved unprecedented in vivo resolution of basal ganglia structures in 2 healthy volunteers; specific resolution metrics or structural findings are not detailed in the available abstract.
Extremely small sample (n=2 healthy volunteers); case report design limits generalizability; findings in healthy volunteers may not reflect clinical populations with basal ganglia pathology.
Ultra-high-field 11.7-T MRI can resolve basal ganglia anatomy in vivo at unprecedented detail, but this remains experimental and is not yet applicable to routine clinical practice.
