## Abstract ^31^P MRS examinations of the calf muscles of 12 healthy volunteers were performed to determine __T__~2~ of the coupled ATP signals by using the 90Β°βTE/2β2662βTE/2βacq selective spinβecho sequence for elimination of phase and intensity distortions. The __T__~2~ relaxation times obtained
T1 and T2 relaxation times are fundamental parameters for signal contrast behaviour in MRI. A number of ex vivo relaxometry studies have dealt with the magnetic field dispersion of T1. By means of multicenter study within the frame of the COMAC BME Concerted Action on Tissue Characterization by MRI
