✦ Synopsis

Abstract

^19^F magnetic resonance images were obtained of the ventricular walls of isolated rabbit hearts perfused with a perfluorochemical (PFC) emulsion. Since the PFC is known to stay within the vascular space in normal myocardial tissue, the ^19^F signal should reflect myocardial vascular volume. ^19^F MRI of PFC emulsions represents a new investigational tool for the study of coronary vascular volume.© 1992 Academic Press,Inc.

## Abstract Quantitative determination of cerebral blood volume (CBV) is important for understanding brain physiology and pathophysiology. In this work, a novel approach is presented for accurate measurement of absolute CBV (aCBV) using vascular‐space‐occupancy (VASO) MRI, a blood‐nulling pulse seq
