Relayed nuclear Overhauser enhancement imaging with magnetization transfer contrast suppression at 3 T

Purpose To develop a pulsed CEST magnetization‐transfer method for rapidly acquiring relayed nuclear Overhauser enhancement (rNOE)–weighted images with magnetic transfer contrast (MTC) suppression at clinical field strength (3 T). Methods Using a pulsed CEST magnetization‐transfer method with low saturation powers (B 1 ) and long mixing time (t mix ) to suppress contributions due to strong MTC from solid‐like macromolecules, a low B 1 also...
