Scientists at IBM Research, along with researchers the Center for Probing the Nanoscale at Stanford University, say they have developed and demonstrated magnetic resonance imaging technology with volume resolution 100 million times finer than conventional MRI. Results of the demonstration were published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. The development represents a significant step forward in tools for molecular biology and nanotechnology by providing the ability to study complex 3-D structures at the nanoscale, according to IBM.
