Spectroscopy

Data on spectroscopy described by researchers at Uppsala University

Published in Medical Imaging Week, July 19th, 2008

According to a study from Uppsala, Sweden, "The main purpose of the study was to compare proton (1H) single-voxel MR spectroscopy (MRS) with high-spatial-resolution spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) to determine the lipid content in human skeletal muscle. Unsuppressed water line was used as a concentration reference in the processing of singlevoxel spectra."

"The spectrum from yellow bone marrow with a 100% fat content and probe with the vegetable oil served as internal and external reference for high-spatial-resolution MRSI, respectively. Very good correlation was found between lipid concentrations measured by water referenced singlevoxel MRS and high-spatial-resolution...
