Pathway to cryogen free production of hyperpolarized Krypton-83 and Xenon-129.

Pathway to cryogen free production of hyperpolarized Krypton-83 and Xenon-129.

Hyperpolarized (hp) (129)Xe and hp (83)Kr for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are typically obtained through spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) in gas mixtures with dilute concentrations of the respective noble gas. The usage of dilute noble gases mixtures requires cryogenic gas separation after...
