The implementation iTIP gagCEST on cartilaginous tissue
has been simulated, and experimentally conducted on
phantoms and a rabbit disc. The results from simulation
and phantom have clearly demonstrated that iTIP gagCEST
can quantitatively measure chemical exchange specific
R1 that linearly increases with PG concentration.
