Scientists discuss in 'Mapping of liver fat with triple-echo gradient echo imaging: validation against 3.0-T proton MR spectroscopy' new findings in spectroscopy. "The purpose of this study was to validate a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technique for mapping liver fat, using (1)H magnetic resonance spectroscopy ((1)H-MRS) as the reference standard. In 91 patients with type 2 diabetes, 3.0-T single-voxel point-resolved (1)H-MRS was used to calculate the liver fat fraction (LFF) from the water (4.76 ppm) and methylene (1.33 ppm) peaks, corrected for T1 and T2 decays," scientists in Dijon, France report.
"LFF (corrected for T1 and T2* decays) was also obtained from the...
