✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Four volunteers were imaged with echo‐planar imaging before and after ingesting a dilute barium preparation. The contrast material improved bowel visibility by increasing lumen signal intensity, without increasing noise. Long T2 gastrointestinal contrast material can be used in T2‐weighted imaging when motion artifacts are suppressed by ultrashort acquisitions. © 1992 Academic Press, Inc.

Direct hepatic tumor injection in rats: Can it be used for analysis of MR imaging contrast agents?

With a recently described rat model technique for direct hepatic injection of tumor cells for imaging research, there were concerns that the injection itself might produce lesions detectable with magnetic resonance (MR) imaging, thereby producing false-positive results. To examine this possibility,
