Abstract

Dynamic nuclear polarization has enabled hyperpolarization of nuclei such as 13 C and 15 N in endogenous substances. The resulting high nuclear polarization makes it possible to perform subsecond 13 C MRI. By using the dynamic nuclear polarization hyperpolarization technique, 10% polarization was obtained in an aqueous solution of 100 mM 13 C-labeled urea, ready for injection. The in vivo T 1 relaxation time of 13 C in the urea solution was determined to 20 ± 2 s. Due to the long relaxation time, it is possible to use the hyperpolarized substance for medical imaging. A series of high-resolution (≈1-mm) magnetic resonance images were acquired, each with a scan time of 240 ms, 0-5 s after an i.v. injection of the hyperpolarized aqueous [ 13 C]urea solution in a rat. The results show that it is possible to perform 13 C angiography with a signal-to-noise ratio of ≈275 in ≈0.25 s. Perfusion studies with endogenous substances may allow higher spatial and/or temporal resolution than is possible with current proton imaging techniques.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
