John McGahern’s Photographic Eye by Adam Hanna

“…That he chose to focus on a poor cottage, a barefoot woman in a doorway, two girls in their Sunday finery, is significant, but more telling of the eye which he brought to his craft is the angle of the house, the broom next to the doorway, the placing of the birdcage and wheel.” My starting point is the quote above, which evokes the techniques and concerns that characterize McGahern’s own work as a novelist. …”

Optimized radiofrequency shimming using low-heating B1+-mapping in the presence of deep brain stimulation implants: Proof of concept. by Maryam Arianpouya, Benson Yang, Fred Tam, Clare E McElcheran, Simon J Graham

“…Simulation and experimental outcomes were compared with those obtained using an existing simulation-driven workflow for obtaining safe mode RF shim settings, and for quadrature RF transmission using a circularly polarized (CP) birdcage head coil. Experimental results showed that although both existing and proposed safe-mode workflows effectively suppressed localized heating at the wire tip in comparison to the CP coil results, the proposed workflow produced much smaller temperature elevations and much improved signal uniformity. …”
