Some of the challenges as well as approaches to overcome them are outlined. Our preliminary investigations show that dynamical, electronically-controlled, digital metasurfaces possess a huge potential to allow for manifold applications in MRI. Spatio-temporal recon-figurability, demonstrated here via the inclusion of low-power BLE microcontrollers and digital capacitors, is the key for all future applications in this field.enfocussingmagnetic resonance imagingmetamaterialsnear-field shapingreconfigurable metasurfacesconference paper
