We present a novel NMR imaging technique that allows absolute determination of the magnetic susceptibility constant, chi, of a solution. By comparing the phase difference of MR images produced with an instant (echo planar) "offset" spin-echo sequence, we obtain a direct measure of the magnetic field perturbations caused by the solution. We demonstrate this method with Gd(DTPA), Dy(DTPA), human red blood cells, and superparamagnetic iron oxide particles.
我们提出了一种新颖的核磁共振成像技术,该技术能够绝对测定溶液的磁化率常数χ。通过比较使用即时(回波平面)“偏移”自旋回波序列生成的磁共振图像的相位差,我们获得了由溶液引起的磁场扰动的直接测量值。我们用钆(二乙三胺五乙酸)、镝(二乙三胺五乙酸)、人类红细胞和超顺磁性氧化铁颗粒演示了这种方法。
