    I had the privilege of working on a 3T fMRI scanner at MCV in Richmond, Virginia. What a pain that thing was to calibrate, and the lead engineer was almost constantly at the site when they were running scans just to keep it running properly. This was 2001-2003. It's pretty cool stuff, I must say. There are a lot of really smart Ph.D.-level engineers working on these things, they will figure it out.
