\n","\n","Data was collected from five participants between two 7T sites with a custom 8Tx/20Rx parallel transmission (pTx) coil. We explored two RF shimming approaches from an MRI vendor and four from an open-source toolbox, showcasing their ability to enhance transmit field and signal homogeneity along the cervical spinal cord.\n","\n","The results indicate significant improvements in B1+ efficiency and cerebrospinal fluid / spinal cord signal ratio across various RF shimming conditions compared to the vendor based methods.\n","\n","The study's findings highlight the potential of RF shimming to advance 7T MRI's clinical utility for central nervous system imaging by enabling more homogenous and efficient spinal cord imaging. Additionally, the research incorporates a reproducible Jupyter Notebook, enhancing the study's transparency and facilitating peer verification. By also making the data openly accessible on OpenNeuro, we ensure that the scientific community can further explore, validate, and build upon our findings, contributing to the collective advancement in high-resolution imaging techniques.\n","\n","```{figure} ../featured.png\n","---\n","width: 900px\n","name: fig1\n","align: center\n","---\n","```"]},{"cell_type":"markdown","metadata":{},"source":["
\n","Figure 1. Overview of the RF shimming procedure. The top panel shows the RF coil used for the experiments, alongside the Tx coil geometry and the electromagnetic simulation results (on Gustav model) yielding the CP mode used for this coil. The bottom panel shows the RF shimming procedure (with approximate duration). First, GRE and tfl_rfmap scans are acquired (4min30s). Second, these images are transferred via ethernet socket from the MRI console onto a separate laptop running Shimming Toolbox and SCT (əs). Third, the spinal cord is automatically segmented to produce a mask that is resampled into the space of the individual coil magnitude and phase images of the tfl_rfmap scan (~5s). Fourth, the RF shim weights are calculated according to the defined constraints for each shim scenario (1min total).\n","
\n","\n","Advancing the development of 7T MRI for spinal cord imaging is crucial for the enhanced diagnosis and monitoring of various neurodegenerative diseases {cite:p}`Kearney2015-py` and traumas {cite:p}`David2019-jy`. However, a significant challenge at this field strength is the transmit field inhomogeneity {cite:p}`Ibrahim2001-xt,Collins2005-za,Roschmann1987-om,Yang2002-ui`. Such inhomogeneity is particularly problematic for imaging the small, deep anatomical structures of the cervical spinal cord , as it can cause uneven signal intensity and elevate the local specific absorption ratio, compromising image quality. This multi-site study explores several radiofrequency (RF) shimming techniques in the cervical spinal cord at 7T.\n"]},{"cell_type":"markdown","metadata":{},"source":["# 1 | Data\n","\n","The data can

\n\nData was collected from five participants between two 7T sites with a custom 8Tx/20Rx parallel transmission (pTx) coil. We explored two RF shimming approaches from an MRI vendor and four from an open-source toolbox, showcasing their ability to enhance transmit field and signal homogeneity along the cervical spinal cord.\n\nThe results indicate significant improvements in B1+ efficiency and cerebrospinal fluid / spinal cord signal ratio across various RF shimming conditions compared to the vendor based methods.\n\nThe study's findings highlight the potential of RF shimming to advance 7T MRI's clinical utility for central nervous system imaging by enabling more homogenous and efficient spinal cord imaging. Additionally, the research incorporates a reproducible Jupyter Notebook, enhancing the study's transparency and facilitating peer verification. By also making the data openly accessible on OpenNeuro, we ensure that the scientific community can further explore, validate, and build upon our findings, contributing to the collective advancement in high-resolution imaging techniques.\n\n```{figure} ../featured.png\n---\nwidth: 900px\nname: fig1\nalign: center\n---\n```","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"
\nFigure 1. Overview of the RF shimming procedure. The top panel shows the RF coil used for the experiments, alongside the Tx coil geometry and the electromagnetic simulation results (on Gustav model) yielding the CP mode used for this coil. The bottom panel shows the RF shimming procedure (with approximate duration). First, GRE and tfl_rfmap scans are acquired (4min30s). Second, these images are transferred via ethernet socket from the MRI console onto a separate laptop running Shimming Toolbox and SCT (əs). Third, the spinal cord is automatically segmented to produce a mask that is resampled into the space of the individual coil magnitude and phase images of the tfl_rfmap scan (~5s). Fourth, the RF shim weights are calculated according to the defined constraints for each shim scenario (1min total).\n
\n\nAdvancing the development of 7T MRI for spinal cord imaging is crucial for the enhanced diagnosis and monitoring of various neurodegenerative diseases {cite:p}`Kearney2015-py` and traumas {cite:p}`David2019-jy`. However, a significant challenge at this field strength is the transmit field inhomogeneity {cite:p}`Ibrahim2001-xt,Collins2005-za,Roschmann1987-om,Yang2002-ui`. Such inhomogeneity is particularly problematic for imaging the small, deep anatomical structures of the cervical spinal cord , as it can cause uneven signal intensity and elevate the local specific absorption ratio, compromising image quality. This multi-site study explores several radiofrequency (RF) shimming techniques in the cervical spinal cord at 7T.\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 1 | Data\n\nThe data can be downloaded from: https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds004906\n\nThe structure of the input dataset is as follows (JSON sidecars are not listed for clarity):\n\n```{toggle}\n~~~\nds004906\n├── CHANGES\n├── README\n├── dataset_description.json\n├── participants.json\n├── participants.tsv\n├── sub-01\n│ ├── anat\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CP_T1w.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CP_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CoV_T1w.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CoV_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-SAReff_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-patient_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-phase_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-target_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-volume_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ └── fmap\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatCP_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatCoV_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatSAReff_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatpatient_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatphase_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anattarget_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatvolume_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampCP_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampCoV_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampSAReff_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-famppatient_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampphase_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-famptarget_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ └── sub-01_acq-fampvolume_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n├── sub-02\n├── sub-03\n├── sub-04\n└── sub-05\n~~~\n```","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 2 | Overview of processing pipeline\n\nDuring the data acquisition stage, RF shimming was done using the [Shimming Toolbox](https://github.com/shimming-toolbox/shimming-toolbox) {cite:p}`DAstous2023` during the acquisition stage.\n\nThe post-processing pipeline uses the [Spinal Cord Toolbox](https://spinalcordtoolbox.com) {cite:p}`DeLeener201724`.\n\nFor each subject:\n\n- Process anat/T2starw (GRE)\n - Segment the spinal cord (SC)\n - Label vertebral levels using existing manual disc labels\n - Create a mask of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)\n - Extract the SC/CSF magnitude signal to assess the stability of the flip angle across shim methods\n- Process fmap/TFL (flip angle maps)\n - Register each B1 map (CP, CoV, etc.) to the GRE scan\n - Apply the computed warping field to bring the segmentation and vertebral levels to the B1 map\n - Convert the B1 map to nT/V units\n - Extract the B1 map value within the SC\n\n>Slow processes are indicated with the emoji ⏳\n\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 3 | Requirements\n\n* Install [Spinal Cord Toolbox](https://spinalcordtoolbox.com/user_section/installation.html) {cite:p}`DeLeener201724`, eg\n\n```shell\n# Install SCT ⏳\n!git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/spinalcordtoolbox/spinalcordtoolbox.git\n!yes | spinalcordtoolbox/install_sct\nos.environ['PATH'] += f\":/content/spinalcordtoolbox/bin\"\n```\n\n* Download the project repository\n\n```shell\ngit clone https://github.com/shimming-toolbox/rf-shimming-7t.git\ncd rf-shimming-7t\ngit checkout main\n```\n\n* Install requirements\n\n```shell\npip install -r binder/requirements.txt\n```\n\n* Download data\n\n```shell\ncd content\nrepo2data -r ../binder/data_requirement.json\n```\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 4 | Environment setup\n\nIn a Python shell:","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"Import the necessary modules.","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"code","source":"from datetime import datetime, timedelta\nimport os\nimport re\nimport json\nimport subprocess\nimport glob\nimport itertools\nimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt\nimport numpy as np\nimport nibabel as nib\nimport pandas as pd\nfrom scipy.interpolate import interp1d\nfrom scipy.ndimage import uniform_filter1d\nfrom scipy.stats import f_oneway, ttest_rel\nimport shutil\nfrom shutil import rmtree\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom statsmodels.stats.multicomp import pairwise_tukeyhsd\nfrom statsmodels.stats.anova import AnovaRM\nimport statsmodels.api as sm","metadata":{"tags":["remove_output","hide_input"],"trusted":true},"execution_count":null,"outputs":[]},{"cell_type":"code","source":"# Start timer\nstart_time = datetime.now()\n\n# Check where we are\n!pwd","metadata":{"tags":["remove_input","remove_output"],"trusted":true},"execution_count":null,"outputs":[]},{"cell_type":"code","source":"# Google Colab-Only\n# ⚠️ No need to run this cell if you run this notebook locally and already have these dependencies installed.\n\nif notebook == 'colab':\n #

\n\nData was collected from five participants between two 7T sites with a custom 8Tx/20Rx parallel transmission (pTx) coil. We explored two RF shimming approaches from an MRI vendor and four from an open-source toolbox, showcasing their ability to enhance transmit field and signal homogeneity along the cervical spinal cord.\n\nThe results indicate significant improvements in B1+ efficiency and cerebrospinal fluid / spinal cord signal ratio across various RF shimming conditions compared to the vendor based methods.\n\nThe study's findings highlight the potential of RF shimming to advance 7T MRI's clinical utility for central nervous system imaging by enabling more homogenous and efficient spinal cord imaging. Additionally, the research incorporates a reproducible Jupyter Notebook, enhancing the study's transparency and facilitating peer verification. By also making the data openly accessible on OpenNeuro, we ensure that the scientific community can further explore, validate, and build upon our findings, contributing to the collective advancement in high-resolution imaging techniques.\n\n```{figure} ../featured.png\n---\nwidth: 900px\nname: fig1\nalign: center\n---\n```","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"
\nFigure 1. Overview of the RF shimming procedure. The top panel shows the RF coil used for the experiments, alongside the Tx coil geometry and the electromagnetic simulation results (on Gustav model) yielding the CP mode used for this coil. The bottom panel shows the RF shimming procedure (with approximate duration). First, GRE and tfl_rfmap scans are acquired (4min30s). Second, these images are transferred via ethernet socket from the MRI console onto a separate laptop running Shimming Toolbox and SCT (əs). Third, the spinal cord is automatically segmented to produce a mask that is resampled into the space of the individual coil magnitude and phase images of the tfl_rfmap scan (~5s). Fourth, the RF shim weights are calculated according to the defined constraints for each shim scenario (1min total).\n
\n\nAdvancing the development of 7T MRI for spinal cord imaging is crucial for the enhanced diagnosis and monitoring of various neurodegenerative diseases {cite:p}`Kearney2015-py` and traumas {cite:p}`David2019-jy`. However, a significant challenge at this field strength is the transmit field inhomogeneity {cite:p}`Ibrahim2001-xt,Collins2005-za,Roschmann1987-om,Yang2002-ui`. Such inhomogeneity is particularly problematic for imaging the small, deep anatomical structures of the cervical spinal cord , as it can cause uneven signal intensity and elevate the local specific absorption ratio, compromising image quality. This multi-site study explores several radiofrequency (RF) shimming techniques in the cervical spinal cord at 7T.\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 1 | Data\n\nThe data can be downloaded from: https://openneuro.org/datasets/ds004906\n\nThe structure of the input dataset is as follows (JSON sidecars are not listed for clarity):\n\n```{toggle}\n~~~\nds004906\n├── CHANGES\n├── README\n├── dataset_description.json\n├── participants.json\n├── participants.tsv\n├── sub-01\n│ ├── anat\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CP_T1w.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CP_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CoV_T1w.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-CoV_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-SAReff_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-patient_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-phase_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-target_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ │ ├── sub-01_acq-volume_T2starw.nii.gz\n│ └── fmap\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatCP_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatCoV_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatSAReff_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatpatient_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatphase_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anattarget_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-anatvolume_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampCP_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampCoV_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampSAReff_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-famppatient_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-fampphase_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ ├── sub-01_acq-famptarget_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n│ └── sub-01_acq-fampvolume_TB1TFL.nii.gz\n├── sub-02\n├── sub-03\n├── sub-04\n└── sub-05\n~~~\n```","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 2 | Overview of processing pipeline\n\nDuring the data acquisition stage, RF shimming was done using the [Shimming Toolbox](https://github.com/shimming-toolbox/shimming-toolbox) {cite:p}`DAstous2023` during the acquisition stage.\n\nThe post-processing pipeline uses the [Spinal Cord Toolbox](https://spinalcordtoolbox.com) {cite:p}`DeLeener201724`.\n\nFor each subject:\n\n- Process anat/T2starw (GRE)\n - Segment the spinal cord (SC)\n - Label vertebral levels using existing manual disc labels\n - Create a mask of the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF)\n - Extract the SC/CSF magnitude signal to assess the stability of the flip angle across shim methods\n- Process fmap/TFL (flip angle maps)\n - Register each B1 map (CP, CoV, etc.) to the GRE scan\n - Apply the computed warping field to bring the segmentation and vertebral levels to the B1 map\n - Convert the B1 map to nT/V units\n - Extract the B1 map value within the SC\n\n>Slow processes are indicated with the emoji ⏳\n\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 3 | Requirements\n\n* Install [Spinal Cord Toolbox](https://spinalcordtoolbox.com/user_section/installation.html) {cite:p}`DeLeener201724`, eg\n\n```shell\n# Install SCT ⏳\n!git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/spinalcordtoolbox/spinalcordtoolbox.git\n!yes | spinalcordtoolbox/install_sct\nos.environ['PATH'] += f\":/content/spinalcordtoolbox/bin\"\n```\n\n* Download the project repository\n\n```shell\ngit clone https://github.com/shimming-toolbox/rf-shimming-7t.git\ncd rf-shimming-7t\ngit checkout main\n```\n\n* Install requirements\n\n```shell\npip install -r binder/requirements.txt\n```\n\n* Download data\n\n```shell\ncd content\nrepo2data -r ../binder/data_requirement.json\n```\n","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"# 4 | Environment setup\n\nIn a Python shell:","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"markdown","source":"Import the necessary modules.","metadata":{}},{"cell_type":"code","source":"from datetime import datetime, timedelta\nimport os\nimport re\nimport json\nimport subprocess\nimport glob\nimport itertools\nimport matplotlib.pyplot as plt\nimport numpy as np\nimport nibabel as nib\nimport pandas as pd\nfrom scipy.interpolate import interp1d\nfrom scipy.ndimage import uniform_filter1d\nfrom scipy.stats import f_oneway, ttest_rel\nimport shutil\nfrom shutil import rmtree\nfrom pathlib import Path\nfrom statsmodels.stats.multicomp import pairwise_tukeyhsd\nfrom statsmodels.stats.anova import AnovaRM\nimport statsmodels.api as sm","metadata":{"tags":["remove_output","hide_input"],"trusted":true},"execution_count":null,"outputs":[]},{"cell_type":"code","source":"# Start timer\nstart_time = datetime.now()\n\n# Check where we are\n!pwd","metadata":{"tags":["remove_input","remove_output"],"trusted":true},"execution_count":null,"outputs":[]},{"cell_type":"code","source":"# Google Colab-Only\n# ⚠️ No need to run this cell if you run this notebook locally and already have these dependencies installed.\n\nif notebook == 'colab':\n #

Additionally, the research incorporates a reproducible Jupyter Notebook, enhancing the study's transparency and facilitating peer verification. By also making the data openly accessible on OpenNeuro, we ensure that the scientific community can further explore, validate, and build upon our findings, contributing to the collective advancement in high-resolution imaging techniques.\n",

The top panel shows the RF coil used for the experiments, alongside the Tx coil geometry and the electromagnetic simulation results (on Gustav model) yielding the CP mode used for this coil. The bottom panel shows the RF shimming procedure (with approximate duration). First, GRE and tfl_rfmap scans are acquired (4min30s). Second, these images are transferred via ethernet socket from the MRI console onto a separate laptop running Shimming Toolbox and SCT (əs). Third, the spinal cord is automatically segmented to produce a mask that is resampled into the space of the individual coil magnitude and phase images of the tfl_rfmap scan (~5s). Fourth, the RF shim weights are calculated according to the defined constraints for each shim scenario (1min total).\n",
