Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging of the vitreous body.
Imaging with proton nuclear magnetic resonance is a valuable new tool for studying the vitreous body of the eye. It is particularly suited for the detection of vitreal liquefaction and intraocular hemorrhage because of the dependence of the signal on the physical environment of water. Conversely, the vitreous body provides a new model for studying changes in proton relaxation times of protein solutions in biological systems.
