This project aimed to examine the relationship between gradient-induced heating and field drift on a large sample of MRI scanners. A standardized phantom protocol was established, and spectroscopy was performed before and after running 10 minutes of echo-planar imaging (EPI). MRS data were acquired from 87 scanners. The frequency drift trace was extracted by modeling the water signal in each transient. Drift rates of up to 1.3 Hz/minute were seen before EPI, and 4 Hz/minute after. This dataset will allow sites to benchmark scanner drift, for consideration in planning research protocol order and examine the need for real-time field-frequency locking.
