abstract = {Multiple sites within Germany operate human MRI systems
with magnetic fields either at 7 Tesla or 9.4 Tesla. In
2013, these sites formed a network to facilitate and
harmonize the research being conducted at the different
sites and make this technology available to a larger
community of researchers and clinicians not only within
Germany, but also worldwide. The German Ultrahigh Field
Imaging (GUFI) network has defined a strategic goal to
establish a 14 Tesla whole-body human MRI system as a
national research resource in Germany as the next
progression in magnetic field strength. This paper
summarizes the history of this initiative, the current
status, the motivation for pursuing MR imaging and
spectroscopy at such a high magnetic field strength, and the
technical and funding challenges involved. It focuses on the
scientific and science policy process from the perspective
in Germany, and is not intended to be a comprehensive
systematic review of the benefits and technical challenges
of higher field strengths.},
