All magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) systems contain a very large magnet. In the clinical setting thus far, these are typically 1.5 or 3 Tesla in strength. Magnets of 7 Telsa or higher are deemed ultra-high field. To date, there are relatively few of these, with approximately 80-100 worldwide.
The most important benefit of a transition from standard to the ultra-high field is an increase in the signal to noise ration which allows for more detailed assessment, as highlighted in the figure below. 
Ultra high field MRI also has the ability to maximize benefit in functional MRI due to a linear increase in signal intensity with increasing field strength. This higher signal can be utilized to improved spatial resolution, allowing for the subdivision of anatomic regions.
While many of these uses focus on neuro-imaging, this has potential benefits in urology. She highlighted the assessment of pelvic muscle contraction and tongue movement, two midline, voluntary motor tasks. They demonstrated two pelvic muscle clusters. Such an approach is also feasible in terms of a sensory input using tactile feedback, as demonstrated with an assessment of the penile shaft and left and right feet. Again, two shaft clusters were identified.
Using individual MRI imaging, investigators can determine MRI based biomarkers on the basis of the extent of active, the distance between clusters, and timecourse properties.
In summary, 7T MRI can provide high-resolution images with the ability to map brain activation at an individual level.
