- This paper describes an important scientific method to greatly enhance the sensitivity of the techniques of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Both the techniques are generally very insensitive, and the enhanced hyperpolarisation approach described here can be used to produce a signal that is 100,000 times larger than that seen using a standard clinical MRI scanner and measurement times are shortened from months to seconds. Barskiy et al cited the work as “providing the highest polarization levels for different substrates as well as suitable polarization strategies” [Progress in Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy 114-115 (2019) 33-70.].
