Abstract

See full text

A method of inspecting a glass article using nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI). An NMRI-active filler material may be applied to the interior surface, the exterior surface, or both of the container. The excess material then may be removed leaving the filler within one or more anomalies on the surface of the container. And an NMRI analysis may be performed producing images associated with the anomalies having filler material therein.
