Stimulated‐echo localized spectroscopy was combined with phase‐ and frequency‐encoding gradients to obtain “zoom” or magnified images of specific organs in situ . The technique requires neither surface coils nor an imaging coil arrangement that exclusively isolates the target organ. This technique can be readily applied to conventional spectrometer imagers that have limited computational capabilities. © 1987 Academic Press, Inc.
