Abstract

In order to provide a system, which allows imaging of 19F MR contrast agents, an in-house-built 19F/1H transmit/receive system for 7 T was successfully tested in a human whole-body 7 T MRI system. This system enables the measurement of concentrations of 1.85 mM. For this approach we used a 19F tuned coil which provided still enough signal gain at the proton frequency to allow 1H imaging for comparison. This showed the possibility of using 19F as contrast agents with a quite simple coil design in comparison to other dual tuned approaches.
