No, I’m an MR tech. I can do thin slices on a 3T just fine. They don’t usually help, with the standard 3mm providing plenty enough information. We do the odd scan that is 0.5mm slices. If I show a lesion that’s <1mm, will anyone do anything about it? Watchful waiting seems likely. The question is ‘do thinner slices improve diagnostic accuracy?’ I’m sure they do… to a point. A monster of a machine like this will be research based and being doing dti etc at extreme resolution. Not that helpful clinically, very useful to the researchers. Getting more people scanned is much more of a problem than getting more scanning on the same cohort.
