Magnetic resonance imaging of glutamate

TL;DR: In a rat brain tumor model with blood-brain barrier disruption, intravenous glutamate injection resulted in a clear elevation of GluCEST and a similar increase in the proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy signal of glutamate, demonstrating the feasibility of using GLUCEST for mapping relative changes in glutamate concentration, as well as pH, in vivo.
Journal ArticleDOI

Proteoglycan-induced changes in T1ρ-relaxation of articular cartilage at 4T

TL;DR: Proteoglycan depletion‐induced changes in T1ρ (spin‐lattice relaxation in rotating frame) relaxation and dispersion in articular cartilage were studied at 4T and showed a strong correlation between changes in PG and T1RH.
Journal ArticleDOI

T1ρ‐relaxation in articular cartilage: Effects of enzymatic degradation

TL;DR: The results suggest that T1ρ measurements are selectively sensitive to proteoglycan content, and the potential of this method in distinguishing the early degenerative changes in cartilage associated with osteoarthritis is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

T1rho relaxation mapping in human osteoarthritis (OA) cartilage: comparison of T1rho with T2.

TL;DR: To quantify the spin‐lattice relaxation time in the rotating frame (T1ρ) in various clinical grades of human osteoarthritis cartilage specimens obtained from total knee replacement surgery, and to correlate the T1ρ with OA disease progression and compare it with the transverse relaxation time (T2).
Journal ArticleDOI

23Na MRI Accurately Measures Fixed Charge Density in Articular Cartilage

TL;DR: The feasibility of calculating FCD by 23Na MRI is shown and MRI protocols for human studies, in vivo, are introduced and employed in quantifying the FCD of articular cartilage of human volunteers in vivo.
