  2. Magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_imaging

    MRI is a medical application of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) which can also be used for imaging in other NMR applications, such as NMR spectroscopy. [ 1 ] MRI is widely used in hospitals and clinics for medical diagnosis , staging and follow-up of disease.

  3. Nuclear magnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_magnetic_resonance

    Bruker 700 MHz nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer. Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) basic principles. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a physical phenomenon in which nuclei in a strong constant magnetic field are disturbed by a weak oscillating magnetic field (in the near field [1]) and respond by producing an electromagnetic signal with a frequency characteristic of the magnetic ...

  4. Magnetic resonance microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance_microscopy

    Magnetic resonance microscopy refers to very high resolution MRI imaging (down to nanometer scale, in some cases comparable with histopathology). The term MR microscopy is most widely used by the High Resolution Magnetic Resonance Imaging department at Duke University, headed by Dr. G. Allan Johnson, and the National High Magnetic Field Lab ...

  5. Relaxation (NMR) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Relaxation_(NMR)

    The energy gap between the spin-up and spin-down states in NMR is minute by atomic emission standards at magnetic fields conventionally used in MRI and NMR spectroscopy. Energy emission in NMR must be induced through a direct interaction of a nucleus with its external environment rather than by spontaneous emission. This interaction may be ...

    Modern 3 Tesla clinical MRI scanner.. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a medical imaging technique mostly used in radiology and nuclear medicine in order to investigate the anatomy and physiology of the body, and to detect pathologies including tumors, inflammation, neurological conditions such as stroke, disorders of muscles and joints, and abnormalities in the heart and blood vessels ...

  7. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_magnetic_resonance...

    A 900 MHz NMR instrument with a 21.1 T magnet at HWB-NMR, Birmingham, UK. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy, most commonly known as NMR spectroscopy or magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), is a spectroscopic technique based on re-orientation of atomic nuclei with non-zero nuclear spins in an external magnetic field.

  8. Magnetic resonance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_resonance

    The first observation of electron-spin resonance was in 1944 by Y. K. Zavosky, a Soviet physicist then teaching at Kazan State University (now Kazan Federal University). ). Nuclear magnetic resonance was first observed in 1946 in the US by a team led by Felix Bloch at the same time as a separate team led by Edward Mills Purcell, the two of whom would later be the 1952 Nobel Laureates in Ph

  9. Spin echo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin_echo

    Modern nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) make use of this effect. The NMR signal observed following an initial excitation pulse decays with time due to both spin relaxation and any inhomogeneous effects which cause spins in the sample to precess at different rates. The first of these, relaxation, leads to an ...
