Differences Between MRI and MRM
- Resolution: Medical MRI resolution is typically about 1 mm³; the desired resolution of MRM is 100 µm³ or smaller to 10 µm³, comparable with histology.
- Specimen size: Medical MRI machines are designed so that a patient may fit inside. MRM chambers are usually small, typically less than 1 cm³ for the imaging of rats, mice and rodents. BrukerBio Spin Company, Billerica, MA specialises in the supply of different microimaging probes (5 mm - 75 mm) for ex vivo/in vivo imaging of excised biological samples.

Famous quotes containing the word differences:
“Generally there is no consistent evidence of significant differences in school achievement between children of working and nonworking mothers, but differences that do appear are often related to maternal satisfaction with her chosen role, and the quality of substitute care.”
