It is principally based on the detection of the nuclei of hydrogen atoms (the proton; symbol \u003csup\u003e1\u003c\/sup\u003eH) in water molecules in tissues. X-nuclei MRI (also called non-proton MRI) is based on the detection of the nuclei of other atoms (X-nuclei) in the body, such as sodium (\u003csup\u003e23\u003c\/sup\u003eNa), phosphorus (\u003csup\u003e31\u003c\/sup\u003eP), chlorine (\u003csup\u003e35\u003c\/sup\u003eCl), potassium (\u003csup\u003e39\u003c\/sup\u003eK), deuterium (\u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eH), oxygen (\u003csup\u003e17\u003c\/sup\u003eO), lithium (\u003csup\u003e7\u003c\/sup\u003eLi), and fluorine (\u003csup\u003e19\u003c\/sup\u003eF) using modified software and hardware. X-nuclei MRI can provide fundamental, new metabolic information related to cellular energetic metabolism and ion homeostasis in tissues that cannot be assessed using standard hydrogen MRI.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis book is an introduction to the techniques and biomedical applications of X-nuclei MRI. It describes the theoretical and experimental basis of X-nuclei MRI, the limitations of this technique, and its potential biomedical applications for the diagnosis and prognosis of many disorders or for quantitative monitoring of therapies in a wide range of diseases. The book is divided into four parts. Part I includes a general description of X-nuclei nuclear magnetic resonance physics and imaging. Part II deals with the MRI of endogenous nuclei such as \u003csup\u003e23\u003c\/sup\u003eNa, \u003csup\u003e31\u003c\/sup\u003eP, \u003csup\u003e35\u003c\/sup\u003eCl, and \u003csup\u003e39\u003c\/sup\u003eK; Part III, the MRI of endogenous\/exogenous nuclei such as \u003csup\u003e2\u003c\/sup\u003eH and \u003csup\u003e17\u003c\/sup\u003eO; and Part IV, the MRI of exogenous nuclei such as \u003csup\u003e7\u003c\/sup\u003eLi and \u003csup\u003e19\u003c\/sup\u003eF. The book is illustrated throughout with many representative figures and includes references and reading suggestions in each section. It is the first book to introduce X-nuclei MRI to researchers, clinicians, students, and general readers who are interested in the development of imaging methods for assessing new metabolic information in tissues in vivo in order to diagnose diseases, improve prognosis, or measure the efficiency of therapies in a timely and quantitative manner. It is an ideal starting point for a clinical or scientific research project in non-proton MRI techniques.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Guillaume Madelin\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 981480097X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789814800976\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Jenny Stanford Publishing\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 478\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 1.06d","brand":"Guillaume Madelin","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44079714435327,"sku":"9789814800976","price":179.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_0f556789-ac0c-44b2-9f41-ea3d222d9dbf.jpg?v=1685482719","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/x-nuclei-magnetic-resonance-imaging-guillaume-madelin-9789814800976","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
