In vivo quantification of choline compounds in the breast with 1H MR spectroscopy.
This work describes a methodology for quantifying levels of total choline-containing compounds (tCho) in the breast using in vivo (1)H MR spectroscopy (MRS) at high field (4 Tesla). Water is used as an internal reference compound to account for the partial volume of adipose tissue. Peak amplitudes are estimated by fitting one peak at a time over a narrow frequency band to allow measurement of s...
متن کاملSimultaneous Detection of Choline and Other Metabolites using SEE-SelMQC for Spectroscopic Imaging of Human Breast Cancer
INTRODUCTION. H NMR detection of metabolites and drugs in human breast tissue is challenging due to the intense water and lipid signals that dominate the proton chemical shift range. Since initial observation of increased choline level in breast cancer by Roebuck et. al. using spin-echo MRS techniques, choline has become a potential MR biomarker for breast cancer diagnosis with improve specific...
متن کاملProton-Echo-Planar-Spectroscopic-Imaging (PEPSI) in Human Breast
INTRODUCTION MR single voxel spectroscopy (MRS) to measure Choline in breast tumors has shown promise as a diagnostic adjunct to dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI exam. MRS improved the sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy for all readers, and improved the inter observer agreement between the readers [1,6]. However, single voxel spectroscopic techniques do not allow characterization of lesion het...
متن کاملQuantitative J-resolved prostate spectroscopy using two-dimensional prior-knowledge fitting.
Two-dimensional (2D) prior-knowledge fitting (ProFit) was adapted and applied for the quantification of J-resolved (JPRESS) spectra acquired at a field strength of 3T from the human prostate in vivo. In contrast to methods based on simple line fitting and peak integration, commonly applied for metabolite quantification in the prostate, ProFit yields metabolite concentration ratios that are inde...
متن کاملINS-PRESS for functional MRS: simultaneous with- and without-water suppression spectral acquisition on visual cortex of human brains at 3T
Fig 2. (a) Time courses of total NAA, choline, creatine and mI during the paradigm of 6.4-mins stimulation as in Fig 1(a). (b) Time courses of these four metabolites used the stimulation paradigm as in Fig 1(b). These spectra were quantitated after 32 scan averages. Error bars show the inter-subject standard deviations.
