| Abstract | The authors investigated the possibility of making non-invasive temperature measurements using MRI. Excised samples of beef muscle and brain were imaged with sequences for rapidly measuring the T/sub 1/, T/sub 2/, and proton density as the tissue temperature was varied from 37/spl deg/C to 43/spl deg/C and above. The signal strength varied by as much as 1.7% per /spl deg/C. For the imaging protocol used, the minimum detectable temperature change (1/spl sigma/) in a 1 cm/sup 3/ voxel over a 6 minute time interval was 1/spl deg/C. Some improvement is expected if the measured dependencies of T/sub 1/, T/sub 2/, and proton density on temperature are used to design a sequence that maximizes the change in signal strength with temperature. The signal strength vs. temperature data show some hysteresis, even for samples held below 43/spl deg/C-the maximum temperature to which healthy tissue is generally raised in hyperthermia. If live tissue shows the same behavior, it may be impossible to do true thermometry based on changes in T/sub 1/, T/sub 2/, and density. There may remain the possibility of accurately measuring small temperature changes over a narrow range. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
