You can see the lower image resolution in the JAMA Neurology paper.

It's not too shabby though, especially if you've looked at older MRI images enough.

I think part of their argument, at least implicitly, is that a lot of things don't necessarily need the resolution of standard MRI to be clinically useful, especially in places like ER settings.

My skepticism about papers like this with small Ns (maybe even some larger Ns) is how well they generalize to very unselected populations. It's sort of par for the course with early-stage medical products, even quality ones, but lots of times as the Ns increase and there's less control over the patient populations they're being used on, the patients become more heterogeneous, things don't work out quite as well.

Still good to see research in this area.

I'd have to look at the paper more closely but I wonder if this can be used for functional imaging as well.

Regarding functional imaging, I would be very surprised if they could get meaningful BOLD signal at that little field strength.
