## Abstract Proton MR spectroscopic imaging (^1^H‐MRSI) of the human prostate, which has an interesting clinical potential, may be improved by increasing the magnetic field strength from 1.5T to 3T. Both theoretical and practical considerations are necessary to optimize the pulse timing for spectro

## Abstract Single‐voxel proton spectra of the human brain were recorded in five subjects at both 1.5T and 3.0T using the STEAM pulse sequence. Data acquisition parameters were closely matched between the two field strengths. Spectra were recorded in the white matter of the centrum semiovale and in
## Abstract Direct‐MR neuronal detection (DND) of transient magnetic fields has recently been investigated as a novel imaging alternative to the conventional BOLD functional MRI (fMRI) technique. However, there remain controversial issues and debate surrounding this methodology, and this study atte
## Abstract High field (4 Tesla) spectroscopic imaging offers the advantages of increased signal‐to‐noise ratio and the possibility of acquiring high resolution metabolite images. We have applied a three dimensional spectroscopic imaging sequence using a sparse Gaussian sampling method to acquire p
## Abstract A CT‐PRESS sequence was implemented on a 3‐T MR scanner and optimized for the detection of the C4 resonance of glutamate. By simulating the sequence using the full density matrix it was found that 121 chemical shift encoding steps in __t__~1~ with an increment Δ__t__~1~ = 1.6 ms were su
## Abstract ## Purpose: To optimize the contrast agent dose and delivery rate used in a novel whole‐body magnetic resonance angiography (MRA) protocol using a 3.0T MR scanner. ## Materials and Methods: Six groups of 20 consenting volunteers underwent whole‐body MRA, with each group receiving a d
