High-field localized in vivo proton spectroscopy on micro volumes.
A water-suppressed volume-selected in vivo 1H spectrum of 0.2 ml of a rat brain has been obtained at 200 MHz using the SPACE localization method. Good signal-to-noise and spectral resolution were obtained by averaging 256 acquisitions. The spectrum shows little T2 weighting effect.
