Dysprosium-bearing red cells as potential transverse relaxation agents for MRI.

abstract：:An improved double quantum coherence (DQC) filter for the selective in vivo detection of glutathione (GSH) in the human brain at 1.5 Tesla is presented. The goal was to minimize contamination of the DQC-filtered GSH signal at 2.9 ppm with contributions arising from GABA. The modification consists of tailoring the freq...
