Original Abstract

The objective of this study was the monitoring of the growth and development of early somatic embryos in a magnetic field strength of 4.7 T. The samples were exposed to radiofrequency (RF) field, gradient (G) field and combination of both fields. To measure longitudinal (T1) and transverse relaxation times (T2), the spin echo based techniques were used. The aspects of major interest for the investigation of the related biological processes are the various image contrasts and the change of the relaxation times T1 and T2 on the boundary between the embryo and the substrate. Control measurements of changes in the size of the investigated tissue of early somatic embryos was done using camera and subsequently evaluated in MATLAB. All measurements were realized at the Institute of Scientific Instruments in Brno.

Keywords

MRI Contrast, Early Somatic Embryos, Plants, Relaxation T1 and T2.
