Abstract

In order to spatially localize NMR Spectroscopic signals that are acquired at minimum time post excitation, a saturation selective spectroscopic imaging technique combines the use of saturation regions to define a region of interest; and RF pulse to generate a free induction decay (FID) signal; and phase encoding steps to spatially localize the signal within the non-saturated region.
