摘要: In the present work, we demonstrate that steady-state free precession (SSFP) imaging pulse sequence FIESTA (fast employing steady state acquisition) used in conjunction with a custom-built insertable gradient coil and customized RF coils can be to detect individual SPIO-labeled cells using commonly available 1.5 T clinical MRI scanner. This work provides first evidence single-cell tracking will possible scanners, opening up new possibilities for cell monitoring of cellular therapeutics vivo humans.
