CONT

Artéfact de déplacement chimique. Cet artéfact provient de la différence de fréquence de résonance entre les protons de l'eau et ceux de la graisse. À l'interface entre deux tissus graisseux et aqueux, cette différence peut être interprétée comme une position différente à cause de la technique du codage spatial par les fréquences.

OBS

artéfact : Cette graphie, puisée des Rectifications de l'orthographe recommandées par le Conseil supérieur de la langue française, est attestée dans le Petit Robert (2006).
