A three-dimensional sodium imaging technique with a minimum echo time of 0.9 ms is described in a 2.0 Tesla whole-body system. The relaxation behaviour in vivo of sodium was analysed: a fast T 2 \* relaxation component between 1.2 and 1.6 ms and a slow T 2 \* relaxation component between 7.1 ms and

## Abstract An automatic threeβdimensional technique for registration of MR images of human brain is described. The algorithm was tested, using MR images of human brain, and was found to estimate angular offsets to within 0.5Β° and translational offsets to within about 1 pixel. The quality of final
A method to provide B1 correction and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) referencing is developed and applied to spectroscopic imaging of the human brain at 4.1 T using a volume head coil. The B1 image allows rapid determination of the spatially dependent B1 that is then used to compensate for the B1 sensiti
