The novel NMR-MOUSE represents a cost efficient and portable sensor, which allows for a reliable evaluation of surface structures, such as the Achilles tendon. The anisotropic structure of the tendon and the surrounding soft tissue can be reliably differentiated with the help of the NMR-MOUSE.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
