ABSTRACT:
A non-invasive apparatus and method for determining changes in the enthalpy of an object undergoing a freezing cycle using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging (NMRI) techniques. Enthalpy is determined from the position of the ice interface of said object or, alternatively, from the liquid/solid ratio of the object.
