Scientific Abstract

The scientific aim of this work is to further develop the metabolic chemical exchange saturation transer MR fingerprinting (CEST MRF) and to translate it from previous animal experiments to human MRI scanners at 3T and 7T. This will enable accelerated quantitative CEST imaging that forms a metabolic MR fingerprinting approach, which can then be evaluated for its potential clinical benefit for tumor diagnosis and stroke prognosis at University Clinic Erlangen.
