Abstract
A method is suggested whereby the shifted extracellular triple quantum filtered ^23^Na signal of an isolated organ is completely eliminated. The method is based on the long relaxation time of the triple quantum coherence and on its fast evolution rate. When the carrier frequency is set on top of the intracellular sodium signal and the time interval between the last two pullses to (12 Ξ__v__)βl (Ξ__v__ is the frequency difference between the intiracellular and the extracellular signals), a complete elimination of the extracellular ^23^Na signal is achieved. The method is demonstrated for isolated rat hearts and the quantification of intracellular sodium using triple quantum filtered spectroscopy is discussed.

The utility of triple-quantum (TQ)-filtered 23 Na NMR spectroscopy for discriminating between intra-and extracellular Na + (Na + i and Na + e , respectively) in a solid tumor in vivo was evaluated using TmDOTP 5-as a 23 Na shift reagent. Infusion of 80 mM TmDOTP 5-without added Ca 2+ produced baseli
The feasibility of employing triple-quantum-filtered (TQF) or double-quantum-filtered (DQF) 23Na NMR spectra to monitor intracellular Na (Nain) content in isolated rat hearts perfused in the absence of a chemical-shift reagent (SR) was investigated. This necessitated characterization of the followin
