    Abstract

    The aim of this study was to accurately quantify changes in the Tissue Sodium Concentration (TSC) in the acute phase of a rodent stroke model with high spatio-temporal resolution (0.38mm3 / 10min) at 7T. The ability to accurately quantify subtle changes in TSC could provide a marker for tissue viability in stroke [1]. However, the quantification accuracy is limited by the typical low SNR’s arising from the inherently low TSC, fast signal decay and low gyro-magnetic ratio of sodium.
