Using [1-(13) C]lactic acid for hyperpolarized (13) C MR cardiac studies.

Magn. Reson. Med. , doi:10.1002/mrm.2535, (2014)

Hyperpolarized [1-(13) C]lactate in solution may be a clinically relevant and safe substrate for real time MR investigations of key metabolic pathways. The potential of using hyperpolarized [1-(13) C]lactate for magnetic resonance studies of cardiac metabolis...

Enhancing the [13C]bicarbonate signal in cardiac hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate MRS studies by infusion of glucose, insulin and potassium.

NMR Biomed. 26(11) , 1496-500, (2013)

A change in myocardial metabolism is a known effect of several diseases. MRS with hyperpolarized (13)C-labelled pyruvate is a technique capable of detecting changes in myocardial pyruvate metabolism, and has proven to be useful for the evaluation of myocardia...
