## Abstract A method is presented for the sensitive detection of minute amounts of H~2~^17^O. The method is based on the increase of the T~2~ of the water protons following an irradiation of the ~17~O resonance frequency, due to the partial or full decoupling of the ^1^Hβ^17^O spinβspin interaction
In this study the performance of FLASH imaging with selective inversion preparation for functional perfusion studies was investigated. In addition to the absolute quantification of perfusion by measurement of the longitudinal relaxation times with global (T(1glob)) and selective (T(1sel)) inversion,
