Structure or Exchange? On the Feasibility of Chemical Exchange Detection with Balanced Steady-State Free Precession in Tissue - An In Vitro Study.

abstract：:To assess infarction development in pig hearts, Mn-enhanced and Gd-enhanced MRI were used. In domestic pigs (25-35 kg, n = 37), the first and second diagonal branches of the left anterior descending coronary artery were ligated to induce acute ischemia and infarction (ischemia+reperfusion) or chronic infarction of inc...
