Two ex-vivo animal hearts were scanned at 7T to track lipid and macromolecular changes using NOEMTR and rNOE. Data was acquired on a fresh lamb heart and a healthy Yorkshire swine with an anteroseptal infarct by occlusion of the left anterior descending (LAD) coronary artery. After performing a multi-pool analysis, it is demonstrated that the NOEMTR and rNOE signal decreases in the infarcted region of the swine heart compared to the normal tissue and lamb heart.
