## Abstract In this study the distribution of intramyocellular lipids (IMCL) in human calf muscles was determined by ^1^HβMR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) measurements. An obstacle for MRSI measurements in the calf, including different muscles, is the inevitable inclusion of regions with high concen

Abstract
In vivo results obtained by the B~1~ insensitive Hadamard spectroscopic imaging multivolume technique used with a surface coil are shown. The functional behavior of different human calf muscles during exercise was determined and the P~i~/PCr ratio in each calf muscle, during steadyβstate conditions, was measured as a function of work level. Different levels of metabolic and physical activity were observed at the three calf muscles. Β© 1992 Academic Press, Inc.

## Abstract The measurement of intramyocellular lipid (IMCL) using in vivo ^1^H MRS is important for better understanding muscle physiology. However, the accurate measurement of IMCL in muscle adjacent to subcutaneous fat (SF) and bone marrow (BM) is often hampered by contaminations from the fat. I
