The equations describing the second- and third-rank DQ signals are simplified by restricting the RF phases as required for DQF. The equations are then factorized into two terms representing the separate contribution to the DQ signal from the RF pulses involved in the preparation and evolution times. This allows analysis of the DQ signal of a particular DQF scheme separately for each of these times in a concise manner. By use of the reformulated equations, the conventional DQF scheme is shown to be only one of four possible DQF schemes. The three new DQF schemes offer some desirable properties over the conventional DQF scheme. In the conventional DQF scheme, the third-rank DQ signal declines rapidly to null as the flip angles of the creation and readout RF pulses deviate from 90° to 54.7° or 125.3°. In addition, the second- and third-rank DQ signals in the conventional DQF scheme are opposite in their polarities, resulting in attenuation of the total DQ signal due to destructive interference between them. In one of three new DQF schemes, the DQ signal does not vanish at 54.7° and 125.3°, but varies smoothly with the same functional dependence on the RF flip angles as the second-rank DQ and triple-quantum signals. Furthermore, in two of the three new DQF schemes, the second- and third-rank DQ signals have the same polarity so that the total DQ signal may be enhanced through constructive interference between them. These features of new DQF schemes have been confirmed experimentally.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnetic Resonance, Series B","volume":"112 2","pages":"Pages 103-110"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1006/jmrb.1996.0119","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19781206","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The apparent diffusion coefficients (ADCs) of the<sup>2</sup>H SQ and DQ signals were measured at a fixed diffusion time (Δ − δ/3 = 21.3 ms) and as a function of the diffusion time to assess restricted diffusion [(Δ − δ/3) was changed from 21.3 to 271.3 ms]. As expected, the ADC of the SQ signal was higher than that of the DQ signal [0.53 ± 0.03 × 10<sup>−5</sup>(<em>n</em>= 3) and 0.30 ± 0.03 × 10<sup>−5</sup>cm<sup>2</sup>s<sup>−1</sup>(<em>n</em>= 4), respectively].

Interestingly, the slow-diffusion component of the SQ signal was found to have an ADC similar to that of the fast component of the DQ signal. These results suggest that brain water can be divided into at least three water populations and that the DQ signal originates from water molecules which interact with slow-diffusing structural components of the brain. The new insights that one can obtain using simultaneous SQ and DQ diffusion measurement and the ability to distinguish among water populations in biological tissues using the above approach are discussed.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16130,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Magnetic Resonance, Series B","volume":"112 2","pages":"Pages 151-159"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1996-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1006/jmrb.1996.0125","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"19781158","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
