Accessing Long-lived Nuclear Spin States in Chemically Equivalent Spin Systems: Theory, Simulation, Experiment and Implication for Hyperpolarization

<p>Recent work has shown that hyperpolarized magnetic resonance spectroscopy (HP-MRS) can trace in vivo metabolism of biomolecules and is therefore extremely promising for diagnostic imaging. The most severe challenge this technique faces is the short signal lifetime for hyperpolarization, whi...
