Abstract
Purpose: The reliability of absolute quantification of average metabolite concentrations in the human brain in vivo by H-MRS using the fully relaxed water signal as an internal standard was evaluated in a number of in vitro as well as in vivo measurements. Method: The experiments were performed on 3T MEDINUS MAGNUM MR-scanner using a STEAM sequence.
