New MRI Technique Thousands of Times More Sensitive and Can Distinguish Between Molecules

Standard magnetic resonance imaging, MRI, is a superb diagnostic tool but one that suffers from low sensitivity, requiring patients to remain motionless for long periods of time inside noisy, claustrophobic machines. A new MRI method, much faster, more selective -- able to distinguish even among specific target molecules -- and many thousands of times more sensitive, has now been developed by researchers
