Cardiac perfusion imaging using hyperpolarized (13) c urea using flow sensitizing gradients.
To demonstrate the feasibility of imaging the first passage of a bolus of hyperpolarized (13) C urea through the rodent heart using flow-sensitizing gradients to reduce signal from the blood pool.A flow-sensitizing bipolar gradient was optimized to reduce the bright signal within the cardiac chamber...
