A heated steering wheel having a heated element that provides a uniform distribution of heat throughout the rim of the steering wheel. The heating element is a thin fabric woven made from nylon coated with silver and has a constant temperature coefficient. The heated steering wheel provides a foam layer surrounding the heating element, and this layer prevents the leather wrapping from being uneven due to the presence of the bus bar. The heating element can also be used in a steering wheel having a wood veneer shell.

Systems and methods for acquiring magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) images of a subject are provided. The method includes performing a pulse sequence to elicit spin echoes, wherein the pulse sequence includes a radio frequency (RF) excitation pulse and a series of RF refocusing pulses that refocus echoes with flip angles in the series of RF refocusing pulses that are varied. The method also includes scaling MRI data associated with each echo by a correction factor that is determined for each echo to create scaled MRI data and that is not the same for all echoes. The method then includes reconstructing an image of the subject using the scaled MRI data.

Systems and methods for generating a medical image of a subject that includes functional information. First, two medical images are acquired. One is weighted based on functional information reflecting physiological functions of the subject and the other weighted based on anatomic information of the subject. A difference image between the two images are generated. By subjecting the difference image and the second image to a localized kernel, a local similarity image is generated. Using the local similarity image, an improved difference image is generated. Lastly, by subtracting the improved difference image from the first image, an enhanced medical image that retains the functional information reflecting physiological functions of the subject is generated.

Some aspects of the present disclosure relate a method for magnetic resonance imaging, which can include acquiring, by applying an imaging pulse sequence, magnetic resonance data associated with a region of interest of a subject. The imaging pulse sequence can include a plurality of RF pulses configured to generate a desired image contrast, and an outer-volume suppression (OVS) module to attenuate the signal outside the region of interest. The method can further include reconstructing, from the acquired magnetic resonance data, a plurality of reduced field of view (rFOV) magnetic resonance images corresponding to the region of interest.
