Using endogenous glycogen as relaxation agent for imaging liver metabolism by MRI

Using endogenous glycogen as relaxation agent for imaging liver metabolism by MRI

Glycogen plays essential roles in glucose metabolism. Imaging glycogen in the liver, the major glycogen reservoir in the body, may shed new light on many metabolic disorders. 13C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) has become the mainstream method for monitoring glycogen in the body. However, the...
