Fast Field Cycling MRI offers the possibility to explore new contrasts generated from NMR dispersion (NMRD) profiles of tissue. Exploiting the dispersion properties of tissues may provide an additional biomarker of diseases through a deeper understanding of molecular mobility. Kidney tumors and healthy kidneys were analyzed among a cohort of twenty-seven mice to give insight into the potential of FFC-MRI for clinical applications. Here, we present R1-dispersion maps performed around 1.5 T to show that the intrinsic dispersion of tumors measured in vivo differs from the one of healthy kidneys.
