title: Nuclear magnetic resonance: a review of principles and applications in medicine and chiropractic.
abstract: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) has in principle been known since 1946 and has found many applications in the fields of physics and chemistry. However, although it has only been in recent years that it has found potential use in various fields of medicine, it is rapidly proceeding from research and development to the practical clinical stage. This paper seeks to provide a brief review of NMR principles and, applications current in medicine, and potential applications in the field of chiropractic.
