Single shot three‐dimensional pulse sequence for hyperpolarized 13C MRI
PURPOSE Metabolic imaging with hyperpolarized 13 C-labeled cell substrates is a promising technique for imaging tissue metabolism in vivo. However, the transient nature of the hyperpolarization, and its depletion following excitation, limits the imaging time and the number of excitation pulses that can be used. We describe here a single-shot three-dimensional (3D) imaging sequence and demonstra...
متن کاملHyperpolarized C-13
Where tanh is the hyperbolic tangens function, h the Planck constant, BBo is the main magnetic field strength, kBB the Boltzmann constant and T is the temperature. At a magnetic field of 1.5 T the polarization of the protons (H) at body temperature is only ∼5 x 10 and for C ∼1.0 x 10. The polarization is proportional to the magnetic field strength. Consequently, a 3 T scanner will result in a d...
متن کاملHyperpolarized (13)C MR Angiography.
Magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) is a non-invasive technology that can be used for diagnosis and monitoring of cardiovascular disease; the number one cause of mortality worldwide. Hyperpolarized imaging agents provide signal enhancement of more than 10, 000 times, which implies large reduction in acquisition time and improved spatial resolution. We review the role of hyperpolarized 13C agen...
متن کاملRadial single-shot STEAM MRI.
Rapid MR imaging using the stimulated echo acquisition mode (STEAM) technique yields single-shot images without any sensitivity to resonance offset effects. However, the absence of susceptibility-induced signal voids or geometric distortions is at the expense of a somewhat lower signal-to-noise ratio than EPI. As a consequence, the achievable spatial resolution is limited when using conventiona...
متن کاملPulse sequence for dynamic volumetric imaging of hyperpolarized metabolic products.
Dynamic nuclear polarization and dissolution of a (13)C-labeled substrate enables the dynamic imaging of cellular metabolism. Spectroscopic information is typically acquired, making the acquisition of dynamic volumetric data a challenge. To enable rapid volumetric imaging, a spectral-spatial excitation pulse was designed to excite a single line of the carbon spectrum. With only a single resonan...
