Title: Method for nuclear magnetic resonance imaging using deuterum as a contrast agent

Abstract

A method for in vivo NMR imaging of the blood vessels and organs of a patient characterized by using a dark dye-like imaging substance consisting essentially of a stable, high-purity concentration of D.sub.2 O in a solution with water.
