Abstract

A computer-implemented method of analysing nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, data of a target object is provided. The method comprises receiving NMR data of the target object, and analysing the received NMR data using a model of the diffusive behaviour of particles within the target object. The model includes a time parameter and a space parameter, the time parameter describing temporal characteristics of the diffusive behaviour of particles in the model and the space parameter describing spatial characteristics of the diffusive behaviour of particles in the model. The model is constrained such that the value of the time parameter and the value of the space parameter are related according to a correlation function. An apparatus for analysing nuclear magnetic resonance, NMR, data of a target object is also provided.
