Using <sup>23</sup>Na Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Measure Sodium in Muscle Tissues

This video demonstrates the quantification of sodium content in human tissues using sodium magnetic resonance imaging (23Na-MRI). The patient's lower leg is placed within the radiofrequency (RF) coil of the machine, and a three-dimensional gradient-echo sequence is performed. Multinuclear MRI images are generated using hydrogen and sodium nuclei to quantify sodium levels in various tissues.

Abstract

This video demonstrates the quantification of sodium content in human tissues using sodium magnetic resonance imaging (23Na-MRI). The patient's lower leg is placed within the radiofrequency (RF) coil of the machine, and a three-dimensional gradient-echo sequence is performed. Multinuclear MRI images are generated using hydrogen and sodium nuclei to quantify sodium levels in various tissues.
