  • Abstract
    The specific advantages of ultra-wideband radar make it a technique especially attractive for biomedical applications. The authors partly review the activities in utilizing this novel technique for the benefit of high and ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging. Topics like motion tracking, MR safety, and navigation for cardiac MRI are addressed.
