The short-lived effect of hyperpolarization of
13
C
poses severe challenges to develop rapid and robust
imaging techniques. The concentric rings trajectory is
such a technique for
13
C
spectroscopic imaging because 1) it is as twice
efficient as Cartesian trajectory; 2) it exhibits
robustness to minor system imperfections; 3) it retains
the ability of variable density and good parallel
imaging properties; 4) and it is insusceptible to
pulsatile flow artifacts. Preclinical studies have been
performed for evaluation. Concentric rings trajectory
shows great potential to be applied for accelerated
hyperpolarized
13
C
MRSI.
