Functional oxygen-17 magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and localized spectroscopy is
defined as the ensemble of MR measurements aiming at in vivo, noninvasive
characterization of oxygen transport and utilization. After a brief description of the present
status of in vivo 0-MR, preliminary results are reported on oxygen delivery and consumption
in cell suspensions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is shown that parallel P-MR at high
magnetic fields has an important corroborative value.
