Metabolite-Specific Echo-Planar Imaging of Hyperpolarized [1-<sup>13</sup>C]Pyruvate at 4.7 T
Although hyperpolarization (HP) greatly increases the sensitivity of <sup>13</sup>C MR, the usefulness of HP in vivo is limited by the short lifetime of HP agents. To address this limitation, we developed an echo-planar (EPI) sequence with spectral-spatial radiofrequency (SSRF) pulses fo...
