In translational
research going from animal model to in vivo human it is often desirable to
change as few experimental parameters as possible. For this purpose a unique
9.4 T animal scanner has been assembled consisting of a dedicated small bore
magnet and being operated with clinical software. Here we demonstrate an
initial performance analysis of the system as well as some more advanced image
acquisitions.
