title: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy in biology and medicine.
abstract: Magnetic resonance spectroscopy has developed from a standard tool of the chemist into a very promising modality for clinical and analytical evaluation of human pathophysiology. We present a brief outline of the method and its parameters, as well as a series of examples of its application. Anatomical imaging is also discussed.
