Magnetic resonance and brain function: approaches from physics proceedings

By: Material type: TextTextLanguage: English Publication details: Amsterdam IOS 1999Description: xvi,577pISBN:
  • 90-5199-501-6
Subject(s): DDC classification:
  • 616.07548 In61
Summary: In the 1990s there was a search for new means, based on MRI of studying the brain in vivo. The first method to be used was Blood Oxygen Level Dependent (BOLD) MRI, and a very wide range of applications followed the discovery of BOLD imaging. The second method, double magnetic resonance, where new procedures are being developed, allow some metabolites with increasing sensitivity and resolution to be detected. The third approach derives from the use of hyperpolarized gases such as xenon, which is soluble in blood and capable of getting bound to haemoglobin and albumin. These three methods are widely used in the lectures in this book. the course was for physicists, chemists and engineers who work in the development of these areas.
