Hyperpolarization device and administration of hyperpolarized liquid contrast agent
The invention includes a resonator for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), which is placed directly in an MRI scanner, so that the local standard magnetic field of 1.5 T can be used for producing a hyperpolarized, liquid and immediately deployable contrast agent. Thus, the new resonator enables a second rapid transport of a hyperpolarized contrast agent to patients, so that the usual relaxation polarization losses can be avoided.
