13 C spectroscopic imaging (SI) is implemented and tested on a Siemens whole‐body MR instrument for in vivo localized 13 C spectroscopy. The method provides spectroscopic maps of extended regions of interest. It is found that 13 C SI is an ideal field of application for the spectroscopic imaging technique since most other localization methods suffer from chemical‐shift or offset artifacts for this nucleus. Applications of 13 C SI with a single 13 C rf channel as well as in combination with polarization transfer experiments and heteronuclear broadband decoupling are shown. © 1989 Academic Press, Inc.
