β¦ Synopsis
Any clinical whole-body MR imager can be adapted for experimental small animal imaging. The design of an rf receiver coil and an efficient magnified imaging technique are presented. Application of this small animal imaging technique is illustrated using a study of paramagnetic contrast enhancement of a tumor in the mouse. 0 1987 Academic F'ress, Inc.
