Popis: 1H nucleus is the most commonly used nucleus for magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) due to its high natural abundance in organisms and high MR sensitivity. However, other nuclei are distinctive in physiological processes, such as 31P that is important in the energy metabolisms. The development of high-field MRI allows for MRI research based on 31P nucleus, while high-quality 1H/31P dual-tuned radio frequency (RF) coil is essential for such applications. This article summarized the researches and applications of various 1H/31P dual-tuned RF coils, and presented in vivo 1H MRI and 31P MR spectra of mouse brain at 9.4 T. Potential applications of 1H/31P dual-tuned RF coil for high field were discussed.
