Spin-echo and gradient-echo EPI of human brain activation using BOLD contrast: a comparative study at 1.5 T.

abstract：:133Cs NMR is a valuable tool for non-invasively probing biological systems. As a congener of potassium, it accumulates in the intracellular space, primarily through the action of the Na+-K+ pump (ATPase). In addition, it is possible to resolve the MR signal of 133Cs in different tissue compartments on the basis of che...
