Well done. You've clicked the tower. This would actually achieve something if you had logged in first. Use the key for that. The name takes you home. This is where all the applicables sit. And you can't apply any changes to my site unless you are logged in.

Our policy is best summarized as "we don't care about _you_, we care about _them_", no emails, so no forgetting your password. You have no rights. It's like you don't even exist. If you publish material, I reserve the right to remove it, or use it myself.

Don't impersonate. Don't name someone involuntarily. You can lose everything if you cross the line, and no, I won't cancel your automatic payments first, so you'll have to do it the hard way. See how serious this sounds? That's how serious you're meant to take these.

Dual-tuned Coaxial-transmission-line RF coils for Hyperpolarized 13C and Deuterium 2H Metabolic MRS Imaging at Ultrahigh Fields. (arXiv:2307.11221v3 [physics.med-ph] UPDATED)

$Objective:$ Information on the metabolism of tissues in both healthy and
diseased states plays a significant role in the detection and understanding of
tumors, neurodegenerative diseases, diabetes, and other metabolic disorders.
Hyperpolarized carbon-13 magnetic resonance imaging ($^{13}$C-HPMRI) and
deuterium metabolic imaging ($^2$H-DMI) are two emerging X-nuclei used as
practical imaging tools to investigate tissue metabolism. However due to their
low gyromagnetic ratios ($\gamma_{13C}$ = 10.7 MHz/T; $\gamma_{2H}$ = 6.5
MHz/T) and natural abundance, such method required a sophisticated dual-tuned
radiofrequency (RF) coil. $ Methods:$ Here, we report a dual-tuned coaxial
transmission line (CTL) RF coil agile for metabolite information operating at
7T with independent tuning capability. The design analysis has demonstrated how
both resonant frequencies can be individually controlled by simply varying the
constituent of the design parameters. $Results:$ Numerical results have
demonstrated a broadband tuning range capability, covering most of the
X-nucleus signal, especially the $^{13}$C and $^2$H spectra at 7T. Furthermore,
in order to validate the feasibility of the proposed design, both dual-tuned
$^1$H/$^{13}$C and $^1$H/$^2$H RF coils are fabricated using a semi-flexible
RG-405 .086" coaxial cable and bench test results (scattering parameters and
magnetic field efficiency/distribution) are successfully obtained.
$Conclusion:$ The proposed dual-tuned RF coils reveal highly effective magnetic
field obtained from both proton and heteronuclear signal which is crucial for
accurate and detailed imaging. $Significance:$ The successful development of
this new dual-tuned RF coil technique would provide a tangible and efficient
tool for ultrahigh field metabolic MR imaging.
