One‐dimensional spatial localization of sodium absorption in the perfused rabbit heart was obtained using 23 Na rotating frame imaging. A Dadok‐type coil was used as the receiver and a circular surface coil as the transmitter allowing regularly shaped slices and homogeneous reception sensitivity. The short time of spatial labeling in this technique results in minimal intensity losses due to relaxation processes. © 1987 Academic Press, Inc.
