Validating subject‐specific RF and thermal simulations in the calf muscle using MR‐based temperature measurements

Purpose Ongoing discussions occur to translate the safety restrictions on MR scanners from specific absorption rate (SAR) to thermal dose. Therefore, this research focuses on the accuracy of thermal simulations in human subjects during an MR exam, which is fundamental information in that debate. Met...
