The recent development of the transmit-receive body coil and the dedicated torso phased-array radio frequency receive coil for 3.0T MR imaging systems has promoted a move toward higher-field, whole-body MR imaging, including pelvic MR imaging. The female pelvis is an anatomic area that may benefit particularly from the advantages of high-field systems. In this article, the authors present their initial experience with the optimization of sequences for MR imaging of the female pelvis at 3.0T, and include a short description of parallel imaging. They compare some of the physical properties of 1.5T and 3.0T, discuss some of the challenges during sequence optimization for the female pelvis at 3.0T, and give examples of female pelvic abnormalities.
用于3.0T磁共振成像系统的发射-接收体线圈及专用躯干相控阵射频接收线圈的最新进展，推动了向更高场强的全身磁共振成像发展，包括盆腔磁共振成像。女性盆腔是一个解剖区域，可能特别受益于高场强系统的优势。在本文中，作者介绍了他们在3.0T场强下优化女性盆腔磁共振成像序列的初步经验，并简要介绍了并行成像。他们比较了1.5T和3.0T的一些物理特性，讨论了3.0T场强下女性盆腔序列优化过程中的一些挑战，并列举了女性盆腔异常的实例。
