Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) is a very powerful research tool based on the detection of electromagnetic signals that emanate from the nuclei of certain atoms. The frequency of these signals are uniquely linked to the magnetic environment in which the atoms are situated and as such can provide very precise information about a wide variety of physical, chemical, biological, and material properties. For example, the NMR signal from hydrogen atoms in our bodies can be detected non-invasively and used to locate and diagnose injury or disease. This technique, known as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), is one of the most important tools in modern medicine.

核磁共振是一种非常强大的研究工具，它基于对某些原子核发出的电磁信号的检测。这些信号的频率与原子所处的磁环境唯一地联系在一起，因此可以提供关于各种物理、化学、生物和材料性质的非常精确的信息。例如，来自我们体内氢原子的核磁共振信号可以非侵入性地检测到，并用于定位和诊断损伤或疾病。这项技术被称为磁共振成像(MRI)，是现代医学中最重要的工具之一。
