RA Meyer, TF Towse, RW Reid… - NMR in …, 2004 - Wiley Online Library
Transient increases in signal intensity (ΔSI, peak 2.6±0.6%, mean±SE, n= 14) were

Blood flow and muscle oxygenation during low, moderate, and maximal sustained isometric contractions

CJ McNeil, MD Allen, E Olympico… - American Journal …, 2015 - journals.physiology.org
