## Abstract Image contrast associated with paramagnetic chemical exchange saturation transfer agents can be generated by off‐resonance irradiation of agent‐bound water or amide protons or on‐resonance irradiation of bulk water. Previously, a four‐pool model was developed to describe an in vivo syst
## Abstract Modulation of water exchange in lanthanide(III)–DOTA type complexes has drawn considerable attention over the past two decades, particularly because of their application as contrast agents for magnetic resonance imaging. LnDOTA–tetraamide complexes display unusually slow water exchange
It has been previously shown that intrinsic metabolites can be imaged based on their water proton exchange rates using saturation transfer techniques. The goal of this study was to identify an appropriate chemical exchange site that could be developed for use as an exogenous chemical exchange depend
