The human cortical mantle has distinct non-uniform layers of gray matter. In this study we used ultra high-resolution MT-weighted imaging at 7T with varying mixing times to measure the transient effects of the magnetization suppression through the primary visual cortex (V1). The MT effect was monitored across different cortical depths to evaluate the effect of the macromolecular pool (MP) and myelination.
