While optical eye imaging techniques are available for examining anterior and retinal structures, they are limited in making 3 dimensional assessments of the whole eyeball. MRI is the preferred modality in these areas but fine eye structures are difficult to resolve on clinical systems. Ultra high field magnets offer increased signal-to-noise, providing higher resolution, but there have been only a limited number of studies so far. We performed an initial study to assess achievable resolution, the anatomy visible on differing image weightings and MR parameter measurements, in eyes of healthy subjects on a 7 Tesla system.
