title: (1)H MR spectroscopy in epilepsy.
abstract: The introduction to the application of (1)H MR spectroscopy for clinical and research studies of mesial temporal and extratemporal epilepsies is done. The techniques of single voxel and spectroscopic imaging are discussed and the analysis of (1)H MR spectra together with basic metabolic descriptions is presented.
