Basic Aspects of Biomedical NMR (2 op / 1.5 ov)
Abbreviation: BAN 
Content: Participant will learn classical theoretical background of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and spectrsocopy (MRS) which is essential for interpretation of biological NMR results and for designing of new experiments. Basic pulse sequences for imaging and in vivo spectroscopy as well as several biomedical applications will be described. Some basic technical/hardware requirements for succesful use of these techniques will be discussed.
