title: Longitudinal spin-order-based pulse sequence for lactate editing.
abstract: A new pulse sequence which edits proton spectra of lactate with full signal return and gives good suppression of water and fat signals is described. This sequence exploits longitudinal spin-order from lactate to edit lactate from fat. Experimental results from phantoms and excised pig heart are presented.
