Abstract
A surface gradient coil designed to obtain localized magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the heart in vivo is described. Images and 31P spectra from phantoms and both pig and dog hearts in vivo are shown. The coil was used in conjunction with a rf surface coil to obtain 31P spectra from transmural sections of the left ventricular wall of a dog heart in vivo to demonstrate differences between normal and ischemic tissue.
