T 1 , T 2 , and magnetization transfer (MT) measurements were performed in vitro at 3 T and
37C on a variety of tissues: mouse liver, muscle, and heart; rat spinal cord and kidney; …

Magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) experiments using off‐resonance irradiation have been
performed with an agar gel model by systematically varying offset frequency, amplitude of …

… Residual longitudinal magnetization following a saturation pulse (MJ, normalized to
magnetization without saturation (M,), was plotted as a function of offset frequency (Am) and H, …

A magnetization‐transfer (MT) CPMG hybrid experiment was performed to analyze T 2
relaxation and MT characteristics in bovine optic nerve. Two exchanging liquid pools with their …

Noise in two‐dimensional Fourier transform magnetic resonance images has been investigated
using noise power spectra and measurements of standard deviation. The measured …

Delayed memory impairments and medial temporal-lobe atrophy are considered to be
cardinal features of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). The goal of the present magnetic resonance (MR) …

Monte Carlo simulations were performed to determine whether the multicomponent T 2
distribution of tissue can be estimated accurately from T 2 decay data acquired in vivo. Simulated …

In functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) studies, long experiment times and small
intensity changes associated with brain activation frequently lead to image artifacts due to …

A new protocol is introduced for brain extraction and automatic tissue segmentation of MR
images. For the brain extraction algorithm, proton density and T2-weighted images are used …

Focused ultrasound heating of ex vivo bovine kidney and liver was monitored using
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to investigate the quantitative relationship between time‐…
