Synopsis

Accelerated acquisitions with a CEST-linescan sequence coupled with the estimation of the local baseline for the analysis of the Z-spectra allow to simultaneously monitor dynamic changes at several CEST contributions induced by a controlled pH decrease. This approach can be a promising strategy for detecting functional induced metabolic changes devoid of confounding BOLD effects.
