Abstract
In this paper, we describe an implantable solenoidal microcoil of 200 mum. in diameter for nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (NMR spectroscopy). This microcoil is used as receiving coil only during experiments. A simula tion of the electromagnetic properties of this microcoil is proposed and co mpared to the experimental measurement. H-1 spectra of 0.33 cm(3) sample of a deionised water or of a lipid compound sample were taken at 2 T, using s uch solenoidal microcoil (85.13 MHz). (C) 2001 Elsevier Science B.V.
