Abstract

Proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy(1H-MRS)is a non-invasive method for evaluating brain function and metabolism. 1H-MRS can quantify low-molecular-weight metabolites in a living brain; it shows their spectra without tracer administration. In this paper, we introduce 1H-MRS and MRS for imaging the distribution of metabolites. The applications of 1H-MRS imaging for several neurological disorders will be outlined.
