Abstract
Magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy can provide detailed morphologic, functional and metabolic information that may provide unique biomarkers to assist drug discovery and development. To overcome the inherent low signal to noise of in vivo magnetic resonance applications, stronger magnetic field strengths can be applied that not only boost signal strengths, but can also be used to improve contrast and specificity as well.:
