  HYPER-CEST MRI breaks new ground in molecular imaging
In the new Science paper, the Pines and Wemmer collaboration combined the xenon biosensors with CEST technology, which was developed as a contrast method for boosting the MRI contrast from protons.
CEST is based on the exchange of protons that takes place between water molecules and other molecules in the body.
While effective under certain conditions, CEST is limited by the fast relaxation time of protons, which necessitates the need for large magnetic fields to decrease relaxation effects and increase the difference between saturated and non-saturated MRI signals.

 CEST
CEST is based on the idea that multi-disciplinary research efforts are becoming more important due to the merging of high technology and the diversity of advanced systems.
The goal of CEST is to combine the expertise and capabilities of researchers among U of U, BYU, and USU in the area of electronic systems to assist and work with industry.
Under this mode of operation, CEST has successfully pioneered a new culture for the interaction between industry and university which is based around a mutually understood contract of research between the two parties.

 About the Center
CEST is a cooperative effort between Notre Dame’s Colleges of Science and Engineering, fostering interdisciplinary environmental research and education by providing cutting-edge analytical technologies needed to address complex environmental problems.
CEST is unique in that Notre Dame faculty and students may use the instruments for class work or research without instrument-time charges, although there are charges associated with “consumables”.
CEST also hosts student field trips from local junior high and high school programs and serves as a resource for undergraduate analytical chemistry laboratories.

 Central European Summer Time - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Central European Summer Time (CEST) is one of the names of UTC+2 time zone, 2 hours ahead of Coordinated Universal Time.
(Note that CEST is commonly referred to, in those countries which use it, as CET, for simplicity.
CEST was used also in years 1993–1995 in Portugal.

 CEST Minutes, Summer 2000 CEST of ASA Christian Engineers and Scientists in Technology of the American Scientific ...
The Symposium was not formal in the sense of a series of papers on a particular topic, but rather served as a repository for papers by CEST Affiliation members and other papers pertinent to the Engineering field and outside of the Conference main theme.
There were nine papers in two sessions, but at least one paper in the "General" session could easily have fit into the CEST Symposium and at least one in the CEST session might better have belonged in the General session..
CEST membership is defined by a common profession and is not necessarily restricted to ASA members.

 Research Projects
By selectively saturating a particular proton signal (associated with a particular molecule or CEST agent) that is in exchange with surrounding water molecules, the MRI signal from the surrounding bulk water molecules is also attenuated.
  Shown in Figure 1 are CEST images obtained of a tube of 100 mM L-arginine at pH=7 acquired with a saturating pulse applied at +2 ppm (Figure 1, left) and -2 ppm (Figure 1, middle) offset from the bulk water proton resonance.
Saturation of the Lanthanide ion bound water resonance leads to attenuation of the bulk water signal via water exchange.
