چکیده

Electron paramagnetic resonance imaging (EPRI) can be modeled by the forward projection of a 4D synthetic spectral-spatial phantom. We developed a simulation tool for EPRI and carried out a quantitative comparison between simulation and experiment, focusing on the signal and noise characteristics. The signal height in the simulation was compared to that in the experimental projections at gradients of different magnitudes and directions. We investigated the noise power spectrum of an EPR imager and incorporated it into the simulation. The signal and noise modeling of the simulation achieved the same performance as the EPR imager. Using this simulation, various sampling schemes were tried to find an optimized parameter set under the customized noise model of this EPR imager.

Functional Proton Electron Double Resonance Imaging: Concept and Experiment

NMR imaging, MRI, is used for numerous biomedical and clinical applications but availability of functional imaging is still limited. On the other side, EPR of exogenous paramagnetic probes has unique advantage in functional specificity due to the absence of overlap with endogenous EPR signals. However EPR-based techniques are far from attaining their maximum potential due to technical limitatio...

Three-dimensional spectral-spatial EPR imaging of free radicals in the heart: a technique for imaging tissue metabolism and oxygenation.

It has been hypothesized that free radical metabolism and oxygenation in living organs and tissues such as the heart may vary over the spatially defined tissue structure. In an effort to study these spatially defined differences, we have developed electron paramagnetic resonance imaging instrumentation enabling the performance of three-dimensional spectral-spatial images of free radicals infuse...
