NMR Imaging of Materials [Kõva köide]

Blnmich (macromolecular chemistry, Rheinisch-WestfSlische Technische Hochschule, Aachen) explains techniques for applying nuclear magnetic resonance imaging in other fields besides medicine. The resolution is not very good, he admits, and the ability of the technology to see below surfaces rarely justifies the cost, but the advantage is in the large variety of image contrast that can be created based on the various different molecular parameters accessible to NMR spectroscopy and relaxometry in liquids and solids. He developed the treatise over many years for his research students, graduates in chemistry, physics, and engineering. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)

This book provides an introduction to NMR imaging of materials covering solid-state NMR spectroscopy, imaging methods for liquid and solid samples, and unusual NMR in terms of special approaches to spatial resolution like an NMR surface scanner. Special attention is devoted to the large variety of ways to generate image contrast so that features invisible by other methods can be detected by NMR. It includes extensive references to modern literature and addresses workers in various fields of imaging applications as well as students.
