## Abstract Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease is the most common cause of death in the United States. Investigation of atherosclerotic plaque morphology and composition is important because the findings may be useful in predicting prognosis or response to therapy. This study presents highβreso
The aim of the study was to compare and analyze different noninvasive indices of cell damage in the isolated pig heart model of regional ischemia. We used (23)Na and (87)Rb MR imaging to evaluate Na(+)/K(+) balance, (31)P MR spectroscopy to measure energetics, and optical spectroscopy to assess oxym
## Abstract To determine the potential value of multimodal MRI for the presurgical management of patients with brain tumors, we performed combined magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and proton MR spectroscopy (MRS) in 164 patients who presented with tumors of various histological subtypes confirmed b
