In this randomized pilot study, 60 W and 90 W QMODE+ RF applications for the periesophageal region achieved comparable acute block and low esophageal injury rates (4.2% each), with similar 1‐year arrhythmia‐free survival, although contact force was higher in the 60 W group.

Clinical Advantages and Pitfalls of Pulsed Field Ablation: How to Prevent ALH Syndrome
Pulsed‐field (PF) Ablation Index (combined with average contact force and number of PF pulses) accurately predicted lesion depth in the prospective validation study. Importantly, no lesion formation was observed in the absence of electrode–tissue contact when the ablation electrode was positioned only 1–2 mm away from the endocardium. ABSTRACT Catheter

ABSTRACT Purpose Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) flow oscillations have emerged as a potentially important marker related to brain clearance, but their acquisition often relies on specialized imaging MRI sequences. The purpose of this work was to enable quantitative assessment of CSF flow associated with cardiac, respiratory, and low‐frequency cycles using ...

A Modified Balanced Steady State Free Precession Sequence for Overhauser Magnetic Resonance Imaging
ABSTRACT Purpose Low‐ and ultralow‐field magnetic resonance imaging (ULF MRI) have inherently low signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) by design. Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization (ODNP) stands out as an effective solution for continuous signal enhancement.

Laterally Oscillating Trajectory for Undersampling Slices: LOTUS
ABSTRACT Purpose While spiral sampling offers SNR advantages for diffusion MRI, its acceleration with simultaneous multislice remains relatively unexplored. This study introduces Laterally Oscillating Trajectory for Undersampling Slices (LOTUS), which is a 3D spiral‐like k‐space trajectory that aims to minimize g‐factor via controlled incoherent ...

Design of an 8‐Channel Transmit 32‐Channel Receive 11.7T Head Coil and Evaluation of SNR Gains
ABSTRACT Purpose To design and develop an 8‐channel transmit 32‐channel receive 11.7T head coil for the strongest human MRI scanner to date, demonstrate safety, and evaluate signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) gains compared to 7T, the most used ultra‐high‐field (UHF) platform.
