Cardiovascular Applications of Hyperpolarized MRI
From The DNP-NMR Blog:
Cardiovascular Applications of Hyperpolarized MRI
Tyler, D., Cardiovascular Applications of Hyperpolarized MRI. Curr Cardiovasc Imaging Rep, 2011. 4(2): p. 108-115.
http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/s12410-011-9066-8
Many applications of MRI are limited by an inherently low sensitivity. Previous attempts to overcome this insensitivity have focused on the use of MRI systems with stronger magnetic fields. However, the gains that can be achieved in this way are relatively small and increasing the magnetic field invariably leads to greater technical...
