Absence of changes in GABA concentrations with age and gender in the human anterior cingulate cortex: A MEGA‐PRESS study with symmetric editing pulse frequencies for macromolecule suppression

Abstract excerpt

Despite MEGA-PRESS being a robust method for editing the GABA resonance, there are macromolecule resonances at the same chemical shift that are coedited with this sequence. Although this is a known problem, it is still often overlooked. We aimed to evaluate the amount of macromolecule signal coedited, as well as the gender and age dependencies for the GABA resonance at 3.01 ppm using MEGA-PRESS with two different...
