This problem can be addressed in part by using higher magnetic field NMR spectrometers operating at up to 1.2 GHz <sup>1</sup>H frequency to enhance the resolution proportionally with the field strength, and by deuteration in combination with transverse relaxation-optimized spectroscopy that reduces the transverse relaxation rate and proportionally the resonance linewidth of the peaks yielding higher spectral resolution. As a complement or alternative to these expensive and often insufficient approaches, we present here a generally applicable method to reduce the linewidth of peaks in indirect dimensions of multi-dimensional NMR spectra by increasing the number of scans per time increment exponentially as a function of time in order to compensate, in part, the decay of the signal caused by transverse relaxation. This enables to achieve a user-defined linewidth of the peaks without undue increase of the noise. Optimization by including in the number of scans also a cosine apodization function as well as processing spectra with an exponential-cosine window function in the direct dimension results typically in a resolution enhancement (linewidth reduction) by a factor of 1.5–2 in comparison to a standard measurement with a constant number of scans per time increment. This is comparable to the 2-fold resolution enhancement that can be obtained by going from a 600 MHz <sup>1</sup>H frequency NMR spectrometer to a 1.2 GHz instrument, or from 1.2 GHz to a spectrum measured hypothetically at 2.4 GHz <sup>1</sup>H frequency. A factor of two resolution enhancement causes thereby a signal to noise loss of a factor of three. The sensitivity gain by dynamic number of scan sampling is thereby ∼20 % over the use of a digital apodization function.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16267,"journal":{"name":"Journal of magnetic resonance","volume":"366 ","pages":"Article 107746"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1090780724001307/pdfft?md5=a4a8c026a704df7c0d6034901bc7234d&pid=1-s2.0-S1090780724001307-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141997492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Imaging the lung with MRI—particularly in the preclinical setting—has historically been challenging because of relatively low lung tissue density, rapid cardiac and respiratory motion, and rapid transverse (T<sub>2</sub>*) relaxation. These limitations can largely be mitigated using ultrashort-echo-time (UTE) sequences, which are intrinsically robust to motion and avoid significant T<sub>2</sub>* decay. A significant disadvantage of common radial UTE sequences is that they require inefficient, center-out k-space sampling, resulting in long acquisition times relative to conventional Cartesian sequences. Therefore, pulmonary images acquired with radial UTE are often undersampled to reduce acquisition time. However, undersampling reduces image SNR, introduces image artifacts, and degrades true image resolution. The level of undersampling is further increased if offline gating techniques like retrospective gating are employed, because only a portion (∼40–50%) of the data is used in the final image reconstruction. Here, we explore the impact of undersampling on SNR and T<sub>2</sub>* mapping in mouse lung imaging using simulation and in-vivo data. Increased scatter in both metrics was noticeable at around 50% sampling. Parenchymal apparent SNR only decreased slightly (average decrease ∼ 1.4) with as little as 10% sampling. Apparent T<sub>2</sub>* remained similar across undersampling levels, but it became significantly increased (p &lt; 0.05) below 80% sampling. These trends suggest that undersampling can generate quantifiable, but moderate changes in the apparent value of T<sub>2</sub>*. Moreover, these approaches to assess the impact of undersampling are straightforward to implement and can readily be expanded to assess the quantitative impact of other MR acquisition and reconstruction parameters.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":16267,"journal":{"name":"Journal of magnetic resonance","volume":"365 ","pages":"Article 107741"},"PeriodicalIF":2.0,"publicationDate":"2024-08-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141838804","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we aimed to expand the toolbox of diffusion-based genetic reporters by modulating aquaporin membrane trafficking and harnessing the evolutionary diversity of water channels across species. We identified a number of new water channels that functioned as diffusion-weighted reporter genes.
