Abstract
Relayed nuclear Overhauser enhancement (rNOE) imaging indirectly detects the aliphatic groups of biomolecules and can be used to diagnose protein or lipid signals and related pathology involving such signals. Current rNOE imaging has been studied mainly on high-field MRI scanners (≥7T). When implementing the technique on low clinical MRI fields (≤3T), rNOE contrast is more obscured by semisolid magnetization transfer contrast (MTC) and water direct saturation (DS). We developed a pulsed-CEST/MT method at 3T MRI that can suppress MTC and DS efficiently, not compromising rNOE contrast.
