Abstract

In vivo methods for non-invasively imaging (or measuring without spatial localization) of neuro-electro-magnetic oscillations are achieved by a pulse sequence of radio frequency (RF) irradiation and magnetic field gradients. These RF and gradient pulses create an intermolecular zero-quantum coherence (iZQC), the frequency of which is: 1) controlled by one or more magnetic field gradients; and 2) made to match the frequency of the targeted neuro-electro-magnetic oscillation.
