Abstract
SYNOPTIC ABSTRACTIn Magnetic Resonance Imaging, a region of interest is subjected to a strong pulsed magnetic field in a scanner similar to a CAT scanner (which, however, uses X-rays instead of magnetic fields). Under this stimulation, the molecules emit signals which are analyzed into several “parameters”, each with a theoretical justification under some strong chemistry assumptions. Other, possibly more informative, parameters might be able to be constructed. This study concentrates on the traditional parameters T1, T2, and 1Hdensity. T1 and T2 are times relating to exponential signal decay (T1) and maximum signal (T2), while 1Hdensity is thought to indicate relative amount of Hydrogen ions present. The data is presented (and screened and reduced), then analyzed to answer questions appropriate to NMR research (including tumor detection, tissue discrimination, and discriminant analysis). Implications for automated expert statistical system analysis are drawn, and the ESS system emphasized.
