✦ Synopsis

The Clinical Use of Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Ever since it first became apparent that NMR signals could be obtained from living tissues there has been great interest in the application of the method to medicine. A large number of 1.5 T MRI instruments has been installed in hospitals around the world, and most could easily be adapted to MRS. How close are we to seeing a routine clinical use for this investigation? This issue is devoted to the proceedings of the 17th L. H. Gray Conference, which addressed this question in relation to cancer, a disease that urgently needs improved treatment and, to a lesser degree, improved diagnosis. The structure of the conference moved from the use of MRS in

We observe linewidths of 0.1-0.4 ppm in 31P spectra of human muscle, liver, and brain. T2 measurements of muscle phosphocreatine, together with previous brain studies, indicate that further improvements in linewidth to 0.02-0.05 ppm might often be achieved, but in some lesions magnetic susceptibilit

## Abstract We report a case of cerebral fat embolism which occurred in a 33‐year‐old man after a diaphyseal femoral fracture without cranial traumatism. The initial examination showed an incomplete picture of coma with tetrapyramidal syndrome and cutaneomucous purpura. There was no respiratory dam

The reliability of a single-voxel, localized proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy protocol suitable for clinical studies was investigated by means of in vitro, single-subject in vivo and multi-subject in vivo examinations of healthy adults aged from 19 to 67 years. The study was performed at 1.5 T
