## Abstract A stimulated echo sequence was used to obtain ^19^F NMR spectra from within a 4โml voxel in a cat brain. The time dependence of the ^19^F NMR signal from an inert gas (CHF~3~) was used to calculate the blood flow in the voxel. The position of the voxel was selected using a ^1^H MR image

## Abstract Techniques for the quantitative imaging assessment of cerebral blood flow are presented in a cat using ^19^F NMR imaging of trifluoromethane. The input function of the indicator was acquired noninvasively, while its uptake and clearance were followed in 2โcc volume voxels from images ac
## Abstract The washout of trifluoromethane (CHF~3~) from rat cerebral cortex was monitored by ^19^F NMR. After 15 min of inhalation of 67% CHF~3~/33% O2 the fluorine signal detected was in a steady state. The CHF~3~ was switched off rapidly at the endotracheal tube and the washout detected with 12
We have used in vivo 19F NMR spectroscopy to study the metabolism of 5-fluorouracil (FUra) in tumors with and without pretreatment with methotrexate (MTX). Using the CD8F1 murine mammary tumor as an in vivo model, we observed signals from FUra, alpha-fluoro-beta-alanine (F beta ALA), alpha-fluoro-be
