Method for encoding n parameters in multi-dimensional Fourier NMR spectroscopy. In NMR tomography, recording a third parameter is rendered possible without any additional input, in addition to the determination of the two-dimensional data required for generating an image, by generating phase-encoded double signals. During Fourier transformation the double signals lead to a striated pattern which is characteristic of the amount of the paramter. It is possible in this manner to represent in NMR images in particular the velocity of a flowing material or, for example, variations of the static magentic field, the susceptibility and the chemical displacement.
