An Analytical and Numerical Approach to Investigate the Role of High Permittivity Materials in Magnetic Resonance Imaging

In this paper we present an innovative approach to jointly use analytical and numerical methods to investigate the effects of high permittivity helmets in magnetic resonance scanners. The proposed methodology and the obtained results provide an increased comprehension of the field-sample interaction that can be fruitfully used to support the design of dielectric helmets in magnetic resonance imaging.
