T2* mapping and B0 orientation-dependence at 7Â T reveal cyto- and myeloarchitecture organization of the human cortex

► T2* at 7 T reveals myelo/cytoarchitecture in the in vivo human cortex. ► Inter-hemispheric T2* difference detected in the auditory cortex. ► B0-orientation dependence detected in highly myelinated cortical regions.
