## Abstract The difference between ^1^H NMR spectra obtained during eu‐ and hyperglycemia exhibited well‐resolved glucose peaks between 3 and 4 ppm as demonstrated by comparison with solution spectra. Estimated increases were consistent with recent ^13^C NMR quantitations of intracerebral glucose.

✦ Synopsis
Abstract
Measurement of the resonances of glucose between 3.2 and 3.9 ppm in ^1^H NMR spectra from the human brain is difficult due to spectral overlap with peaks from more concentrated metabolites. The H1 resonance of α‐D‐glucose at 5.23 ppm is resolved from other metabolite peaks, but potentially overlaps with the intense water signal at 4.72 ppm. This paper demonstrates that the increased resolution at 4 Tesla permits to suppress the water signal sufficiently to reliably detect glucose directly at 5.23 ppm by ^1^H MRS and the estimated peak intensity is consistent with previous ^13^C NMR quantification.
