• "Silent" is an MRI technique allowing zero time of echo acquisition • Its feasibility and performance were assessed on a 7 T MRI system • Image quality in several regions was higher than in conventional techniques • Imaging acoustic noise was dramatically reduced compared with conventional imaging • "Silent" is suitable for T1-weighted head imaging at 7 T.
