Spatially resolved chemical reaction monitoring using magnetic resonance imaging

摘要

Over the previous three decades, the use of MRI for studying dynamic physical and chemical processes of materials systems has grown significantly. This mini-review provides a brief introduction to relevant principles of MRI, including methods of spatial localization, factors contributing to image contrast, and chemical shift imaging. A few historical examples of H-1 MRI for reaction monitoring will be presented, followed by a review of recent research including H-1 MRI studies of gelation and biofilms, H-1, Li-7, and B-11 MRI studies of electrochemical systems, in vivo glucose metabolism monitored with F-19 MRI, and in situ temperature monitoring with Al-27 MRI.
