## Abstract Measurement of regional myocardial perfusion is important for the diagnosis and treatment of coronary artery disease. Currently used methods for the measurement of myocardial tissue perfusion are either invasive or not quantitative. Here, we demonstrate a technique for the measurement o
## Abstract A dualβbolus protocol can overcome limitations due to T1βinduced MR signal attenuation and hence enables more accurate quantification of myocardial blood flow (MBF) by contrast enhanced MR perfusion imaging. The study explores potential benefits of the dualβbolus technique for the asses
## Abstract ## Purpose To assess the influence of isoflurane and pentobarbital anesthesia and the carrier gases on myocardial blood flow (MBF) in the rat heart in vivo. ## Materials and Methods MBF was quantified in vivo using arterial spinβlabeling (ASL) magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Left v
## Abstract Understanding degenerative intervertebral disc diseases hinges on the ability to objectively and noninvasively assess the disc matrix composition and integrity. The potential of quantitative magnetic resonance imaging to meet these demands was evaluated. Analyzing the __T__~1~ and __T__
