Abstract :
High-field magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) offers functional, biochemical and physiological information. High field is advantageous for both fMRI signal generated from deoxyhemoglobin and blood oxygen, and intracellular sodium by inversion recovery MRI imaging. High field MRI was used to image human and primates for sodium MRI imaging.
