In vivo animal study demonstrates distinct spin-lattice relaxation times between malignant melanoma and normal tissue in mice, indicating the potential of nuclear magnetic resonance for tumor...
Pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance has been used to differentiate in vivo between normal mouse tail tissue and a malignant transplanted melanoma, S91, located on the tail. The tumor displayed a nuclear (proton) spin-lattice relaxation time of approximately 0.7 second contrasted with the simultaneously measured normal tail tissue relaxation time of approximately 0.3 second.
