Quantitative analysis of metabolite levels in normal human subjects by 31P topical magnetic resonance.
We have shown that 31P topical magnetic resonance can be calibrated to obtain quantitative measurements of metabolite levels and intracellular pH in limb muscles of normal human subjects. In some critical situations, TMR yields more accurate results than those obtained by chemical analysis of tissue biopsies.
