Quantitative proton MR spectroscopic imaging of the human brain

Soher, Brian J., van Zijl, Peter C. M., Duyn, Jeffrey H., Barker, Peter B.·1996·Magnetic Resonance in Medicine

Abstract

Multislice proton MR spectroscopic images (SI) of the brain were quantitated, using the phantom replacement technique. In 16 normal volunteers, ranging in age from 5 to 74 years, average “whole brain” concentrations of choline (Cho), creatine (Cr), and N‐acetylaspartate (NAA) were found to be 2.4 ± 0.4, 7.9 ± 1.3, and 11.8 ± 1.0 (m M, mean ± SD), respectively. These values are in good general agreement with those previously determined by single‐voxel localization techniques. Cortical gray matter was found to have lower Cho and NAA levels, compared to those of white matter, corpus callosum, and basal ganglia. Cho was also found to increase significantly with age in several locations. Quantitative multislice proton SI is feasible in the clinical environment, and regional and age‐dependent variations occur that must be accounted for when evaluating spectra from pathological conditions.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
