Abstract

An inductively coupled implanted coil was designed for high‐resolution magnetic resonance (MR) studies of rat spinal cord (SC) in vivo at 7 T. The practical issues involved in implementation of the coil at high fields are discussed, and the adjustment of various parameters for optimizing coil performance are described. The utility of the coil was demonstrated with anatomical, magnetization transfer, diffusion tensor imaging, and proton MR spectroscopy (MRS).

## Abstract An inductively coupled, chronically implanted short‐solenoid coil was used to obtain in vivo localized ^1^H NMR spectra and diffusion‐weighted images from a rat spinal cord. A 5 × 8 mm two‐turn elliptically shaped solenoid coil was implanted in rats at the site of a T‐12 vertebral‐level

MR microscopy on intact rats using a single surface coil is reported. The use of the same coil for excitation and detection is experimentally very simple and results in a smaller field-of-view than the conventional setup using homogeneous excitation (whole-body coil or a large surface coil) and a sm

## Abstract Regional values of fractional anisotropy (FA) and mean diffusivity (__D__~av~) of in vivo and excised rat spinal cords were measured using an iscosahedral encoding scheme that is based on 21 uniformly distributed and alternating gradient directions with an echo planar imaging (EPI) read
