Proton MRS (1H MRS) provides noninvasive, quantitative metabolite profiles of tissue and
has been shown to aid the clinical management of several brain diseases. Although most …

In 1984, Dixon published a first paper on a simple spectroscopic imaging technique for
water and fat separation. The technique acquires two separate images with a modified spin …

Paramagnetic deoxyhemoglobin in venous blood is a naturally occurring contrast agent for
magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). By accentuating the effects of this agent through the use …

Simple modification of a spin echo imaging pulse sequence generates useful spectroscopic
information at 0.35 T. New images are produced that show water only, fat only, and the …

Water suppression is typically performed in vivo by exciting the longitudinal magnetization in
combination with dephasing, or by using frequency‐selective coherence generation. MEGA …

We present here a method for analyzing selective excitation in terms of spatial frequency (k)
space. Using this analysis we show how to design inherently refocused selective excitation …

The endogenous substance pyruvate is of major importance to maintain energy
homeostasis in the cells and provides a window to several important metabolic processes …

Localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the human brain, first reported
more than 20 years ago, 1–3 is a mature methodology that is used clinically in many medical …

Using ak‐space interpretation of small‐tip excitation, a single excitation pulse has been
designed that is simultaneously selective in space and resonant frequency. An analytic …

Over more than 30 years in vivo MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) has undergone an
enormous evolution from theoretical concepts in the early 1980s to the robust imaging …
