## Abstract Noninvasive methods to visualize blood flow in the intratumoral vasculature have not previously been studied. In the present study, the use of a novel intravascular MR contrast agent with a generation‐6 polyamidoamine dendrimer core (G6‐(1B4M‐Gd)~192~; MW: 175kD) was investigated, and t
## Abstract Sensitivity encoding (SENSE) and partial Fourier (PF) techniques both reduce MRI acquisition time. Two‐dimensional SENSE uses coil sensitivities to unfold aliasing in the phase/slice‐encoding plane. One‐dimensional PF and homodyne reconstruction are routinely applied in the frequency/ph
We investigated whether better visualization of the intrahepatic portal system could be obtained by adding magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) to three-dimensional MR portography (3D-MRP). In 15 healthy volunteers, 3D fast low-angle shot images combined with an off-resonance pulse were obtained af
## Abstract The feasibility of improving myocardial/blood pool contrast in MR cine images through use of an intravascular contrast agent (Ferumoxtran, Advanced Magnetics, Inc., Cambridge, MA) was tested in four subjects. The contrast‐to‐noise ratio (CNR) demonstrated a trend toward improvement in t
