Title:
磁気共鳴映像剤が分極された核スピンを用いる試料の磁気共鳴研究の方法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2004508858
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method of contrast enhanced magnetic resonance imaging of a sample, said method comprising: a) administering a hyperpolarised MR contrast agent comprising non-zero nuclear spin nuclei into said sample for fluid dynamic investigations of the vasculature, b) exposing said sample or part of the sample to radiation of a frequency selected to excite nuclear spin transitions in said non-zero nuclear spin nuclei, c) detecting MR signals from said sample using any suitable manipulation method including pulse sequences. The invention also provides novel compounds.
