Laser-polarized noble gas nuclei such as 3 He or 129 Xe are spin systems far from thermal equilibrium. Their enhanced nuclear spin polarization results in a correspond-( ) ing sensitivity gain in nuclear magnetic resonance NMR experiments. Recent developments in the application of laser-polarized no
The nonequilibrium bulk magnetic moment of hyperpolarized (HP) noble gases generated by optical pumping has unique characteristics. Based on the Bloch equations, a model was developed describing the signal dynamics of HP gases used in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lung with special conside
