A method for spin magnetic resonance applications in general, and for
performing NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) and MRI (nuclear
magnetic resonance imaging) in particular is disclosed. It is a quantum
theory-based continuous precision method. This method directly makes use
of spin magnetic resonance random emissions to generate its
auto-correlation function and power spectrum, from which are derived spin
relaxation times and spin number density using strict mathematical and
physical equations. This method substantially reduces the NMR/MRI
equipment and data processing complexity, thereby making NMR/MRI machines
less costly, less bulky, more accurate, and easier to operate than the
pulsed NMR/MRI. By employing extremely low transverse RF magnetic B.sub.1
field (around 0.01 Gauss), MRI with this method is much safer for
patients. And, by employing continuous spin magnetic resonance emissions,
NMR with this method is of virtually unlimited spectral resolution to
satisfy any science and engineering requirements.
