To determine the appropriate peak B1+ field levels, an RF peak B1+ survey is performed on commercial 3T MR systems loaded with ASTM phantom filled with saline. The peak B1+ averaged over center slab inside the 3T commercial MR systems can be as high as 27 µT. The 3T MRI safety assessment should include values up to this level.
