We report a method of dynamically measuring coronary blood flow in lambs, while simultaneously monitoring cardiac phosphate metabolism with 31 P NMR at 81 MHz. This method uses an ultrasonic transit time probe in conjunction with a 4.7‐T CSI spectrometer with a 33‐cm magnet bore. © 1988 Academic Press, Inc.
