Positron emission tomography in a case of intracranial hemangiopericytoma.

abstract：:A technique is described that permits the 19F nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging of the vascular system in animals that have been infused with certain perfluorocarbon blood substitutes. The essence of the technique is the selection for imaging of a narrow group of spectral lines from the fluorocarbon using a com...
