Purpose: To perform cardiac MRI at 7 Tesla in humans featuring a custom-built 2×4-channel transmit/receive radiofrequency (RF) body array coil. Materials and Methods: Scanning was performed on a 7-Tesla whole-body MRI system (Magnetom 7T, Siemens, Germany). A custom-built flexible 2×4-channel transmit/receive body RF coil was used for RF signal transmission and reception. Fve healthy volunteers (2 male, 3 female) were placed head-first supine with the chest at the isocenter. The imaging protocol encompassed cardiac function along standard views (short and long axis, 4-chamber, 2-chamber, LVOT) using peripheral p…
