Improvement of R2\textasteriskcentered mapping in Alzheimer\textquoterights Disease at 9.4T through reduction of B0 fluctuation-induced image artifacts using Navigator Echoes
{Ultra-High-Field (UHF) MRI provides a potential non-invasive means to investigate Alzheimer\textquoterights Disease (AD). R2\textasteriskcentered map is one of the most established MRI techniques to detect iron concentration in the brain. However, image quality can be substantially affected by B0 fluctuation-related-artifacts at UHF. In this study we showed an improvement of the quality of R2\textasteriskcentered maps in AD at 9.4T using Navigator Echos approach.}
