Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) allows the assessment of chemical substances in living tissue and the detection of biochemical changes associated with certain diseases. In vivo MRS, however, is usually limited in sensitivity and spectral resolution. Many resonance lines originating from metabolites of interest are overlapped by signals of other metabolites and are therefore not visible in conventional MR spectra. In order to overcome this limitation, three localized methods, a technique making use of a spectral difference, a multiple quantum filter technique, and a two-dimensional J-resolved technique, were evaluated theoretically and experimentally for the detection of \gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) both in vitro and in vivo. All three methods are able to produce the desired results at high metabolite concentrations in vitro. For in vivo measurements the spectral difference method proofed to be most appropriate due to its relatively high sensitivity and its short acquisition time. |
