[MR microscopy of the human eye]

Abstract

Ultra-high-field MR microscopy is a novel, non-invasive imaging technique to explore the strcutures of the human eye without optical distorsions. This review aims to provide an insight into the technique of the method. The normal MR microscopic anatomy of the human eye with correlations to histology is demonstrated. The use of MR microscopy in ther experimental ophthalmological setting is discussed.
