Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The goal of the current project is to explore and develop the technical feasibility of non-invasive imaging of the human musculoskeletal system and head with the first 7T MR scanner with a CE mark to identify areas where the higher field promises significant benefits in qualitative image quality. For a subset of the planned exams, state-of-the art 7T or 3T images will be used as standard of reference to comparatively gauge the qualitative image quality of the investigational 7T images.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

* Consent to undergo a 7T (and, if appropriate a comparative 3T) MRI exam.
* For some of the consistent small series: presence of a specific condition of the musculoskeletal system or of the head. This can include traumatic or degenerative changes, e.g., of tendons, cartilage, muscle, peripheral nerves, ligaments, and bones, or in the brain, as well as focal lesions, e.g., tumors.

Exclusion Criteria

* Contraindications to undergo a MRI examination at a field strength of 7 Tesla or at 3 Tesla.
* Irregular anatomy and/or tissue properties
* Inability to consent - for any reason.
* Body mass above 200 kg.
* Body mass below 30 kg.
* Women: pregnancy.
* Age below 18.
* Known or suspected non-compliance, drug or alcohol abuse.
* Inability to follow the procedures of the study.
