title: Laboratory information system for nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry in biomedical materials (NMR LIS). II. Data analysis.
abstract: Data analysis modules for Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Relaxometry LIS are described. Since the experimental NMR results from biomedical samples often exhibit complex structure that arises from complexity of tissue, the analysis methods focus on search, investigation, and evaluation of complex multiexponential relaxation features. Two algorithms have been implemented: an enhanced spin grouping method that is based on a multiexponential curve stripping algorithm, and an eigenvalue decomposition method, implemented as modified DISCRETE program.
