## Abstract The structure and metabolism of the rhesus macaque brain, an advanced model for neurologic diseases and their treatment response, is often studied noninvasively with MRI and ^1^H‐MR spectroscopy. Due to the shorter transverse relaxation time (__T__~2~) at the higher magnetic fields thes

## Abstract Although the rhesus macaque brain is an excellent model system for the study of neurological diseases and their responses to treatment, its small size requires much higher spatial resolution, motivating use of ultra‐high‐field (__B__~0~) imagers. Their weaker radio‐frequency fields, how
## Abstract Non‐human primates are often used as preclinical model systems for (mostly diffuse or multi‐focal) neurological disorders and their experimental treatment. Due to cost considerations, such studies frequently utilize non‐destructive imaging modalities, MRI and proton MR spectroscopy (^1^
## Abstract Although recent studies indicate that use of a single global transverse relaxation time, __T__~__2__~, per metabolite is sufficient for better than ±10% quantification precision at intermediate and short echo‐time spectroscopy in young adults, the age‐dependence of this finding is unkno
## Abstract Single‐voxel proton spectra of the human brain were recorded in five subjects at both 1.5T and 3.0T using the STEAM pulse sequence. Data acquisition parameters were closely matched between the two field strengths. Spectra were recorded in the white matter of the centrum semiovale and in
