Moving the goalposts for MRI

Shifting the spectral window away from background noise allows faster MRI scans

A new class of MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) contrast agents developed by scientists in the UK is promising to deliver clearer images in less time. ‘In any NMR experiment you are chasing sensitivity. We have enhanced the intrinsic ability to observe an MRI probe signal by a factor of 20,’ explains David Parker of Durham University who led the study.
