Two-dimensional COSY scans at 3T using a 64 channel head and neck coil have enabled the inspection of fucose-α-(1-2)-galactose glycans that resonate in the region of F1=0.9-1.7ppm; F2= 4.1-4.5ppm. With accurate shimming and water suppression, two new peaks were identified (Fuc VI at 4.44-1.37 ppm and Fuc VII at 4.29-1.36 ppm). These cross-peaks were consistently visualised across 86 participants.
