Abstract
The multiple sensitive point technique of n.m.r. imaging is discussed in terms of the mode of n.m.r. excitation and detection, provision of field gradients and the methods of data processing. The design criteria of an instrument to implement this and related imaging methods at whole body size are described and particular attention is paid to techniques employed to increase the versatility and ease of use of the apparatus.
