title: High resolution nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of pig knees at 4.7 T.
abstract: We present images of the pig knee joint which illustrate the resolution that is easily obtainable in high field (4.7 T) NMR imaging. We also describe a variant of the birdcage resonator which utilizes a novel tuning mechanism of simple construction.
