Editorial for "Quantification of Prostate Cancer Metabolism Using 3D Multiecho bSSFP and Hyperpolarized [1-¹³C] Pyruvate: Metabolism Differs Between Tumors of the Same Gleason Grade" Echo-planar spectroscopic imaging[6] and echo-planar imaging[7] sequences have been used as a faster alternative to chemical shift imaging and for combined spatial and temporal coverage, respectively. The research interest and clinical potential of hyperpolarized magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are substantial, as evidenced by the increasing number of registered clinical trials in recent years.
