The target organs include the brain, the vascular system, as well as all other parts of the human body accessible for MR examination at 7 Tesla. Optimized measurement techniques are used to inquire whether certain pathologies can be detected or disease processes investigated in this way. Further goals are, among others, the spatially high-resolution visualization of anatomical structures (e.g. in the brain) for the visualization of tumor heterogeneity, the quantification of tissue perfusion and
