title: Technical factors in MR image quality.
abstract: We studied the subjective rating of MR image quality as field strength, slice thickness, number of acquisitions and matrix size were varied. Matrix and number of acquisitions had the most significant effect on image quality. Therefore, in comparisons of image quality, technique must not be disregarded.
