MRI and Blood Flow in Human Arteries: Are There Any Adverse Effects?

ConclusionsOur results suggest that the clinical consequences are to be carefully considered before exposing human beings to ultra high field MRI. It may not be appropriate to conclude anything about the effect of magnetic field on blood flow in human beings based on experimental studies on animals, which is one of the reasons for the contradicting reports found in the literature. A slip condition at the wall which is appropriate to hemodynamics is yet to be developed.
