Gr. ζεῦγµα, ζεῦγµατ- a yoking (in allusion to the coupling of the electromagnetic and magnetic fields) + -o + -graphy.] A form of imaging using the principles of nuclear magnetic resonance to obtain and display the structural details of soft tissue.

1973P. C. Lauterbur in Nature 16 Mar. 190/1 Because the interaction may be regarded as a coupling of the two fields by the object, I propose that image formation by this technique be known as zeugmatography. Ibid. 191/1 At low radio-frequency power..the two capillaries gave nearly identical images in the zeugmatogram. Ibid. 191/2 Zeugmatographic techniques should find many useful applications in studies of the internal structures, states, and composition of microscopic objects. 1981Brit. Med. Jrnl. 7 Nov. 1212/1 Nuclear magnetic resonance (or zeugmatography) is looming on the horizon. |
