Carver Biomedical Research Building of University of Iowa houses the world's first MAGNUS scanner installed in a non-military academic research site. It also has the latest GE Signa 7T human scanner. The investigational Signa MAGNUS 3T scanner recently got an upgrade & repair, and the 7T scanner now has a fully functional parallel transmit capability. This building must be where some of the early 7T brain images were produced, which I obtained from somebody in 2017 in order to compare GE and Siemens 7T images. The building in the picture reminds me of the other building in Korea in a parallel universe, with their expensive facilities, shiny walls, and the energy of young graduate students flocking around a cafeteria.
