Gravity differs from all other known fundamental forces because it is best described as a curvature of space-time. For that reason, it remains resistant to unifications with quantum theory. Gravitational interaction is fundamentally weak and becomes prominent only at macroscopic scales.

This study aims to further explore the contrast of CEST at 2 ppm in the human brain at 7T and investigate the metabolite correlates of CEST at 2 ppm via correlations with magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS). Simulations were performed to establish the optimal acquisition parameters, such as total saturation time (t) and B root mean squared (Brms) for CEST at 2 ppm in the human brain.
