Abstract
Nuclear overhauser enhancement is a confounding factor arising from the in vivo application of a chemical exchange saturation transfer technique in which two nuclei in close proximity undergo dipole cross-relaxation. Several studies have shown applicability and efficacy of nuclear overhauser enhancement in observing tumors and other lesions in vivo. Thus, this effect could become an emerging molecular imaging research tool for many diseases. Moreover, nuclear overhauser enhancement has the advantages of simplicity, noninvasiveness, and high resolution and has become a major focus of current research. In this review, we summarize the principles and applications of nuclear overhauser enhancement. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 2 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 1.
