The imaging of the physiology of fungal pathogens is currently feasible by means of the microscopic technique or the photographic approach. However, these methods do not provide dependable results, mainly because their description of the physiology of pathogens is either too detailed or lacks the necessary aspects. The authors of this paper have analyzed the possibility of visualizing the physiology of pathogen mycelia via the MRI method. This approach provides an overall image of the pathogens and enables the mapping of the plant infestation stage. MRI imaging also appears to be a suitable tool to support further research of the pathogens and their influence on the attacked plants or other biological material.
