Tomography of hydrogen with nuclear magnetic resonance

L Crooks, J Hoenninger, M Arakawa, L Kaufman, R McRee, J Watts and JH Singer

A nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imager with a 6.5-cm aperture is described. Spatial resolution is 0.47 X 2.0 mm with a slice thickness of 8.4 mm. Contrast resolution is 3% for a 4-minute image. Because of the excellent spatial resolution and high contrast between soft tissues, the images provide a great deal of detail and reconstruction artifacts due to motion are avoided. Blood flow can be observed, and selected enhancement of lesions thorough the modification of software- controlled operational parameters is demonstrated.
