## Abstract Measurement by ^13^C magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the incorporation of label from [1‐^13^C] glucose, initially into C4 of glutamate, allows the regional tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle flux (F~TCA~) to be determined in the human brain. In this study, a direct ^13^C MRS approa
