Hyperpolarized noble gases have been used early on in applications for sensitivity enhanced NMR. Xe has been explored for various applications because it can be used beyond the gas-driven examination of void spaces. Its solubility in aqueous solutions and its affinity for hydrophobic binding pockets...
