Description

The in situ determination of the free precession of protons has been observed for ascite water in the earth's magnetic field. This leads to determination of the volume of the fluid, in relative units, and to its protein concentration, in absolute units. The application of this method to medical diagnosis is promising

Abstract (French)

L'observation in situ de la precession libre des protons de l'eau d'ascites, dans le champ magnetique terrestre, permet de determiner en valeur relative le volume et, en valeur absolue, la concentration en proteines, du liquide. L'interet diagnostic de cette methode est evident
