In this study, we implemented high-temperature superconducting (HTS) RF coil system on DCE application of in-vivo mice kidney metabolism. Compared to a conventional copper coil, the improvement of the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of approximately 2.7 folds and average signal change (AS) of 4 folds was shown in the preliminary results. The capability of HTS coil on DCE MRI was demonstrated and further investigation of tumor cancer model is expected. ? 2007 IEEE.[SDGs]SDG3Acoustic intensity; Biochemistry; Copper; Electric batteries; Electric conductivity; Metabolism; Microcirculation; Signal to noise ratio; Superconducting devices; Superconductivity; Tumors; Biomedical Imaging; Cancer models; Dynamic contrast; Dynamic contrast-enhanced imaging; High-temperature superconducting; HTS coils; In-vivo; International conferences; International symposium; RF coils; Signal changes; Source imaging; Temporal evolutions; Tumor angiogenesis; High temperature superconductorsconference paper10.1109/NFSI-ICFBI.2007.43877442-s2.0-48049117775
