METHOD OF MAGNETIC RESONANCE IMAGING

摘要

The present invention provides methods for passive visualisation of invasive devices by employing a hyperpolarised solution of a high T1 agent having a T1 value of at least 5 seconds at a field strength in the range of 0.001-5 T and a temperature in the range of 20-40 °C. Devices and instruments particularly useful for being employed in the methods are also provided as well as use of the methods in imaging, surgery and therapy.
