  • Title: Magnetic transverse relaxation time of the protons in transplantable melanotic and amelanotic melanoma and in some inner organs of golden hamster Mesocricetus auratus, Waterhouse.
    Author: Lewa CJ, Zbytniewski Z.
    Journal: Bull Cancer; 1976; 63(1):69-72. PubMed ID: 990511.
    Abstract:
    The proton magnetic relaxation time T2 was measured in transplantable melanotic and amelanotic melanoma as well as in some organs of golden hamsters of agouti and albino strains. These measurement indicate that the proton relaxation rate depends upon the properties of the biopolymers contained in the tissues, such as melanin, upon the age of the animals, but also on pathological changes different from the neoplastic transformation of the tissues, such as oedema.
