Abstract

The use of multinuclear magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for investigating the distribution of deuterium and perfluorocarbons in laboratory rats is considered. This technique is implementable at any MRI scanner that allows its transmitter and receiver circuitry to be tuned to the necessary Larmor frequencies. It is shown that multinuclear MRI opens up broad prospects for biological and medical in vivo research.
