The 4D dynamics of hyperpolarized [1-13C]pyruvate in the healthy human heart. Five 2.1-cm slices were acquired with cardiac gating. Each metabolite volume was acquired within one heartbeat, yielding an effective temporal resolution of ~3.5 s. Data were acquired with an in-plane resolution of 0.6 × 0.6 cm2 and are displayed in SNR units. Thirty total timeframes were acquired and the first 15 are shown here
