The slice selection imaging has advantages of reducing imaging time and obtaining optimum dynamic range in image for EPR imaging as well as for MRI. However, the slice selection using a selective pulse, which is used in MRI, is difficult to implement in EPR imaging because of ultra-fast relaxation time compared to gradient settling time. Therefore, we used a modulated gradient field to achieve slice selection in pulsed EPR imaging in this study. We demonstrated the slice selection imaging with tubes and a living mouse to show the effect of slice selection in pulsed EPR imaging.
