## Abstract Multicomponent __T__~2~ relaxation of normal and injured rat sciatic nerve was measured. The __T__~2~ relaxation was multiexponential, indicating the multicompartmental nature of __T__~2~ decay in nerve tissue. The size of the short, observed __T__~2~ component correlated very well with
