We recorded EEG data in 5 young healthy volunteers in ultra-high static magnetic fields up to 9.4T. The EEG-data acquisition was reliable and reproducible. The cardioballistic artefacts increase with the strength of the B0 field and in particular from 8T to 9.4T. The cardioballistic artefacts show a high interindividual variability.
