Journal ArticleDOI
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Acute Myocardial Infarction in Dogs: Alterations in Magnetic Relaxation Times
Charles B. Higgins,Robert J. Herfkens,Martin J. Lipton,Richard E. Sievers,Philip Sheldon,Leon Kaufman,Lawrence E. Crooks +6 more
TL;DR: Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging detects acute myocardial infarction as a positive image without contrast media and increased signal intensity of the infarct is related to increased hydrogen density and increased T2 relaxation time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measuring signal-to-noise ratios in MR imaging.
TL;DR: A simple method is presented that should serve for estimating S/N in most cases and is generally not practical for use by a physician working in a clinical situation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Temperature distribution measurements in two-dimensional NMR imaging.
TL;DR: It is found, as expected, that variations in local temperature appear as variations in the corresponding T1 image, and T1 is found to vary linearly with 1/T over the range of 0 degrees C to about 40 degrees C for blood.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nuclear magnetic resonance whole-body imager operating at 3. 5 Kgauss
Lawrence E. Crooks,Mitsuaki Arakawa,J Hoenninger,J C Watts,R McRee,L Kaufman,Peter L. Davis,Alexander R. Margulis,J. DeGroot +8 more
TL;DR: The authors present a method of collecting several tomographic images sequentially during the time required for a single image, which shows the theoretical advantages of nuclear magnetic resonance imaging at higher field strengths.
Journal ArticleDOI
Inner volume MR imaging: technical concepts and their application.
TL;DR: A result of this technique is a high signal from rapid pulsatile blood flow, produced without cardiac gating the pulse sequence, which eliminates respiratory motion artifacts from the imaged volume.
