Estimating the ATP cost of force production in the human gastrocnemius/soleus muscle group using 31P MRS and 1H MRI.

abstract：:Transmit efficiency specifies the amplitude of the magnetic resonance excitation field produced over a region of interest with respect to the radiofrequency (RF) power deposited in the sample. This metric is highly important at ultra-high field magnetic resonance imaging (≥7 T), where excitation inhomogeneities and el...
