Optimized CEST cardiovascular magnetic resonance for assessment of metabolic activity in the heart

Abstract Background Previous studies have linked cardiac dysfunction to loss of metabolites in the creatine kinase system. Chemical exchange saturation transfer (CEST) is a promising metabolic cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging technique and has been applied in the heart for creatine ma...
