A reduction in blood So2 and ESR is reported to lead to decay of a spin echo signal. The effect is attributed to fluctuations in erythrocyte magnetic fields caused by Brownian motion, and is proposed as a basis for monitoring red blood cell agglutination.

Abstract

A reduction in blood So2 and ESR is shown to lead to the decay of a spin echo signal. This effect is explained by the impact of red blood cell magnetic field fluctuations caused by the Brownian motion. The authors propose to use the effect to monitor red blood cell agglutination.
