Long-lived localization in magnetic resonance imaging
From The DNP-NMR Blog:
Long-lived localization in magnetic resonance imaging Dumez, J.N., et al., Long-lived localization in magnetic resonance imaging. J Magn Reson, 2014. 246C(0): p. 27-30. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25063953 The longitudinal nuclear relaxation time, T1, sets a stringent limit on the range of information that can be obtained from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) experiments. Long-lived nuclear spin states provide a possibility to extend the timescale over which information can be encoded in magnetic resonance. We introduce a strategy to localize an ensemble of molecules for a significantly extended duration ( approximately 30 times longer than T1 in this example), using a spatially selective conversion between magnetization and long-lived singlet order. An application to tagging and transport is proposed. Go to The DNP-NMR Blog for more info. |
