Localized short-echo-time proton MR spectroscopy with full signal-intensity acquisition.
We developed a short-echo-time (TE) sequence for proton localized spectroscopy by combining a 1D add-subtract scheme with a doubly slice-selective spin-echo (SE) sequence. The sequence preserves the full magnetization available from the selected volume of interest (VOI). By reducing the number of radiofrequency (RF) pulses acting on transverse magnetization, we were able to minimize the TE to t...
متن کاملLow-grade glioma: correlation of short echo time 1H-MR spectroscopy with 23Na MR imaging.
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE There is considerable variability in the clinical behavior and treatment response of low-grade (WHO grade II) gliomas. The purpose of this work was to characterize the metabolic profile of low-grade gliomas by using short echo time (1)H-MR spectroscopy and to correlate metabolite levels with MR imaging-measured sodium ((23)Na) signal intensity. Based on previous studies, ...
متن کاملLocalized proton MR spectroscopy in infants with urea cycle defect.
SUMMARY Urea cycle defect is an inborn error of ammonium metabolism caused by a deficient activity of the enzymes involved in urea synthesis. Localized short-TE proton MR spectroscopy, performed in two infants who had citrullinemia and ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, respectively, showed a prominent increase of glutamine/glutamate and lipid/lactate complex in both cases. N-acetylaspartat...
متن کاملShort echo time proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy in Alzheimer's disease: a longitudinal multiple time point study.
Short echo time localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy provides quantification of brain metabolites, including N-acetyl-aspartate, myo-inositol, creatine/phosphocreatine and choline-containing compounds, which may be useful biomarkers for monitoring Alzheimer's disease. We aimed to quantify the rate of metabolite change in Alzheimer's disease, to assess factors influencing changes and...
متن کاملLocalized cerebral proton MR spectroscopy in HIV infection and AIDS.
PURPOSE To document differences in the cerebral proton MR spectra of patients with early and late stages of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection. METHOD We studied the relative N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) levels by localized proton spectroscopy of the parietooccipital region of the brain in 43 HIV-seropositive patients, including 26 with an acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-defin...
