  16. Conclusions • Polarization enhancement can be very effective • reduction of detection time • strong polarizing magnetic field is needed • nonhomogenous field (average field) • ratio of protons to nitrogens • proton relaxation time • nitrogen relaxation time EUROMAR 2008, Saint Petersburg, Russia, 6-11 July 2008
