Detailed measurement and analysis of two important processes in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are described. The processes of interest are the apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) behavior of water protons in the brain and the transverse relaxation (T2) behavior of water protons in muscle. The me

Selective saturation of bound nuclei attenuates the MR visible CH 2 and the CH 3 signal of total creatine (tCr) in rat brain in vivo. The low contrast to noise ratio achieved during the limited experiment time makes it difficult to quantify the effect. It is shown that by combining data from continu
## Abstract Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) both allow nonβinvasive monitoring of cerebral cortical oxygenation responses to various stimuli. To compare these methods in elderly subjects and to determine the effect of age on cortical oxygenation re
A fundamental problem in Fourier transform NMR spectroscopy is the calculation of observed resonance amplitudes for a repetitively pulsed sample, as first analyzed by Ernst and Anderson in 1966. Applications include determination of spin-lattice relaxation times (T 1 's) by progressive saturation an
