pubmed-article:8797467 | pubmed:abstractText | Multislide proton magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (1H-MRSI) permits the simultaneous acquisition of N-acetylaspartate (NA), choline (Cho), creatine/phosphocreatine (Cre), and lactate (Lac) signal intensities from four 15-mm slices divided into 0.84-ml single-volume elements. NA is inferred to be a neuron-specific molecule, whereas Cho mainly reflects glycerophosphocholine and phosphocholine, compounds involved in phospholipid metabolism. | lld:pubmed |
