摘要 |
<p>The present invention provides a method of magnetic resonance imaging of a sample, said method comprising: administering a hyperpolarised MR imaging agent comprising non-zero nuclear spin nuclei into said sample; exposing said sample to a radiation at a frequency selected to excite nuclear spin transitions in said non-zero nuclear spin nuclei; detecting MR signals from said sample utilising spectral-spatial excitation, in combination with line scanning, point scanning and/or steady state imaging techniques; and optionally generating an image, physiological data or metabolic data from said detected signals.</p> |
