We tested the feasibility of Proton/Lithium MR imaging
using a dual-tuned RF array. To evaluate the coil
performance, SNR at 1) three ROIs, 2) different
thicknesses and 3) different concentrations were
measured. SNR was ~90-180 at different ROIs and spectrum
at different concentration was compared using 2D CSI
sequence.
