In 31 P‐ { 1 H} MR experiments of humans in a 1.5‐T whole‐body system, signal intensity enhancements of 1 P resonances of up to 68 ± 4% (for phosphocreatine of the calf muscle) have been observed upon irradiation at proton frequency. This observation is explained as a nuclear Overhauser effect due to the dipolar coupling between 1 H and 1 P spins. © 1990 Academic Press, Inc.
