✦ Synopsis

Abstract

Changes in the local magnetic susceptibility of brain tissue due to injected paramagnetic contrast agent are manifest as both a linebroadening and frequency shift of the water resonance. By combining these two effects, the sensitivity of gradient recalled echo images to such changes can be increased.

We calculate the effects of subvoxel variations in magnetic susceptibility on MR image intensity for spin-echo (SE) and gradient-echo (GE) experiments for a range of microscopic physical parameters. The model used neglects the overlap of gradients from one magnetic inclusion to the next, and so is v
