(a) B-mode SNR for all frames of clips taken with and without aluminium foil shielding on the transducer and cable, whilst the MR scanner was idle. (b) SNR of the gel sample in B-mode images taken whilst the MR scanner was idle and whilst FLASH and TSE sequences were in use. A total of 74 measurements were made for each data set.
