Study of ischemic myocardial buffering capacity in perfused rat heart through rapidly interleaved 1H and 31P MRS measurements.
We present a method for the direct correlation of quantitative changes in lactate concentration and intracellular pH during global ischemia in the perfused rat heart using rapidly interleaved 31P MRS and water-suppressed 1H MRS acquisitions. The ischemic myocardial buffering capacity was determined and found to be consistent with previous experimentation.
