Abstract

The invention proposes an imaging process by nuclear magnetic resonance in which a calculated image is given corresponding to the molecular diffusion value at each point of an investigated medium. The diffusion image is obtained by comparing images relative to same sections of the medium and acquired during two excitation sequences, whereof one is not very sensitive to the diffusion and the other is particularly sensitive thereto. These two images undergo comparison in order to produce a diffusion image.
