title: MRS of the brain in patients with anorexia or bulimia nervosa.
abstract: Twenty patients with anorexia or bulimia nervosa were prospectively investigated by magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the brain. Compared to healthy controls, MRS of those with eating disorders revealed metabolic changes, which seem to be a consequence of their nutritional deficiency.
