## Abstract __N__‐Acetylaspartate (NAA) is one of the most important metabolites detectable by brain ^1^H‐MRS being considered an index of neuronal integrity. At the low magnetic field used in most clinical settings β,γ‐glutamate/glutamine (Glx) resonances are very close and partially overlap the m
Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) are capable of providing detailed information on cerebral oxidative metabolism in infants who have been resuscitated following an acute asphyxial episode. In severely affected infants studied by phosphorus and proton MRS, a
## Abstract Image localized, water‐suppressed proton magnetic resonance spectra were obtained from affected brain in patients with multiple sclerosis. In patients with moderate to severe chronic disease, spectra revealed a decreased ratio of __N__‐acetylaspartate to creatine resonance intensities.
