In vivo measurement of brain metabolites using two‐dimensional double‐quantum MR spectroscopy—exploration of GABA levels in a ketogenic diet
18 Mar 2003
Abstract excerpt
A localized proton 2D double-quantum (DQ) spin-echo spectroscopy technique was implemented on 1.5 T clinical MRI scanners for the detection of gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA) in the brain. The 2D approach facilitates separation of peaks overlapping with GABA in 1D DQ-filtered (DQF) spectra. This technique was applied to four normal adult volunteers and four children with intractable epilepsy. The coefficient of...
