## Abstract ## Purpose: To examine the precision of glutamate detection using a very short echo time (TE) phase rotation STEAM (PRโSTEAM) sequence. ## Materials and Methods: Spectrosopic data were acquired from the anterior cingulate gyrus in nine healthy adults using 6.5โmsec TE PRโSTEAM, 40โms
## Abstract A singleโvoxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (^1^HโMRS) method is described that enables the in vivo measurement of endogenous brain glycine (Gly) levels in human subjects. At 4.0 T, TEโaveraging ^1^HโMRS dramatically attenuates the overlapping __myo__โinositol (mI) resonances
## Abstract Accurate quantification of in vivo short echo time spectra is hampered by the presence of overlapping peaks and a significant baseline. In this work the Padรฉ approximant in conjunction with Monte Carlo simulation is used to extract peak areas from short echo time ^1^H spectra. We exploi
Macromolecules contribute broad "background" resonances to the 1 H NMR brain spectra at short echo times. The application of long echo times is the most widely used method for removing these resonances. Here, it is demonstrated that these background resonances may be suppressed at short echo times u
## Abstract Short echo time proton MR Spectroscopic Imaging (MRSI) suffers from low signalโtoโnoise ratio (SNR), limiting accuracy to estimate metabolite intensities. A method to coherently sum spectra in a region of interest of the human brain by appropriate peak alignment was developed to yield a
