Abstract
⺠Amine-water proton exchange (APEX) can be measured by a spin-locking technique. ⺠APEX is optimized with a relatively high power and short duration irradiation pulse. ⺠APEX contrast is sensitive to concentrations of protein and amino acids, and pH. ⺠In an MCAO model, APEX showed different patterns with ADC and APT maps. ⺠APEX signal can also be obtained with a CEST technique using similar parameters.
