Abstract

^1^H‐MRS at high field has been increasingly utilized to study brain metabolism in healthy and pathological states. The aim of this work was to determine the effects of physiological motion on the results of this exam in the presence of the increased susceptibility differences at high field. Single voxel spectra of various regions in the human brain were acquired using frame‐by‐frame PRESS ^1^H‐MRS at a 0.5 Hz sampling rate. The frame‐by‐frame variations of the FID phase and the frequency and fractional amplitude variations of the residual water‐signal were analyzed. In the human brain the standard deviations of these variations were 3.9 ± 0.5°, 0.83 ± 0.32 Hz, and 0.028 ± 0.013 of the mean amplitude (n = 15). In a motionless phantom, smaller phase and frequency variations were detected in water‐suppressed acquisitions. However, the end effects of physiological motion on PRESS ^1^H‐MRS of the brain at 3 T were negligible. Magn Reson Med 51:184–187, 2004. © 2003 Wiley‐Liss, Inc.

## Abstract It is commonly accepted that the signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR = peak‐signal/RMS‐noise) per‐unit‐time of proton MR spectroscopy (^1^H‐MRS) is linearly proportional to the voxel volume. Consequently, with a headcoil and 30‐min acquisition, 1 cm^3^ is considered the SNR‐limited spatial resol
