19Fluorine NMRS has the potential to enable noninvasive predictions of tumor response to 5-fluorouracil (5FU) therapy based on tumor pharmacokinetics. Knowledge of the T1's of 5FU and its fluoronucleotide anabolites (FNuc) is required for quantitative spectral analysis and selection of optimal pulse

The objective of this study was to implement a clinically relevant multi-slice multi-echo imaging sequence in order to quantify multicomponent T2 relaxation times for normal volunteers at both 1.5 and 3 T. Multi-echo data were fitted using a nonnegative least square algorithm. Twelve echo data with
A single-voxel Carr-Purcell-Meibloom-Gill sequence was developed to measure localized T(2) relaxation times of (13)C-labeled metabolites in vivo for the first time. Following hyperpolarized [1-(13)C]pyruvate injections, pyruvate and its metabolic products, alanine and lactate, were observed in the l
