title: The PCr/Pi ratio in in vivo injured rat brain.
abstract: A new ratio, R+ = PCr/(mP + Pi), is proposed to analyses brain metabolism after injury. The Pcr/Pi and PCr/(mP + Pi) ratios of a series of injured rat brains show similar trends in the case of well-defined Pi and mP peaks, while they diverge in the case of mutual overlap.
