Contrast-enhanced MRI of murine myocardial infarction - part II.

abstract：:High-resolution MR imaging (312 microns in plane resolution) and MR spectroscopy (0.36 cm3 nominal voxel) have been performed on human frontal cortex using a 3 in surface coil. Localized proton spectra have been obtained from contiguous 6 x 6 x 10 mm voxels using one-dimensional phase encoding, TR 2000 ms and TE 31 ms...
