Hyperpolarized [2-13C]dihydroxyacetone is a promising new molecular imaging agent that is sensitive to hepatic gluconeogenesis as well as glycolytic flux. Here, a physiological perfusion condition produces a metabolic profile in keeping with current understanding of hepatic metabolism, as compared to previous results from a model intended to strongly upregulate gluconeogenesis.
