    摘要: An NMR experiment on hyperpolarizable magnetic nuclei of substrate molecules in a living human or animal body, involves polarizing the substrate molecules by non-hydrogenating para-hydrogen induced polarization (=NH-PHIP) into a singlet/pseudo singlet state in low magnetic field and injecting the substrate molecules into the living body, the body or a part thereof being previously located inside a magnet at low magnetic field. The magnet is switched on to high magnetic field, and in at least part of the substrate molecules, the singlet state/pseudo singlet state is converted into observable magnetization. An MRI or MRS measurement is carried out with the living body or the part thereof, collecting data from the substrate molecules. The NMR experiment is well applicable on hyperpolarized nuclei within a patient, with reduced losses of magnetization due to relaxation processes.

    摘要: A method for producing hyperpolarized sample material for use in magnetic resonance investigations involves preparing a target material containing high γ nuclei with a short T1, a polarizing agent with a broad EPR line, and low γ nuclei with a long T1. The polarizing agent in the target material is irradiated with microwave radiation, wherein the target material is at a cryogenic temperature and exposed to a static magnetic field B0≧4.0 T, thus polarizing the high γ nuclei by DNP, and the polarization is transferred from the high γ nuclei to the low γ nuclei by Cross Polarization. A dissolved sample material is prepared containing the hyperpolarized low γ nuclei from the target material. Nuclei with a long longitudinal relaxation time T1 can thereby be quickly hyperpolarized to a high polarization level.
