Compared with CT, MRI has a number of advantages for example no radiation exposure. However, MRI has also disadvantages e. g. large size, high cost and never use to patients who have implant devices or metals because have to use strong field. Therefore, ultra-low-field MRI (ULF-MRI) has attracted attention because of usage of ultra-low fields such as earth field about 40∼50 μT. But there is a fatal weakness of ULF-MRI which SN ratio decreases. In this paper we show that spin-exchange optical pumping (SEOP) can increase 131Xe nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) signals. We also show that SEOP is possible at very low power LASER with field in pulse sequence of NMR measurement.本誌: 電気学会論文誌C（電子・情報・システム部門誌） Vol.137 No.4 （2017） 特集：量子・情報・エレクトロニクス医療応用本誌掲載ページ: 604-606 p原稿種別: 論文／日本語電子版へのリンク: https://www.jstage.jst.go.jp/article/ieejeiss/137/4/137_604/_article/-char/ja/
