The wrists of asymptomatic volunteers were imaged at 8 and 1.5 T. The signal-to-noise ratio, spatial resolution, and soft tissue contrast of the 8 T images were much greater. The increased signal-to-noise ratio available at 8 T allows acquisition of high quality, high resolution images and visualization of intricate anatomy at scan times acceptable for clinical imaging.
