Abstract
NMR imaging is used as an example of how spatial resolution can be improved in a signal-to-noise (S/N) limited situation. The NMR imaging process consists of two components-generating the NMR signal and localizing it in space. This paper will show that spatial resolution not only aids in identifying small structures, but improves the detectability of larger features by preserving their object contrast.Keywords
