Overview
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy covers how MRS is acquired, what it can measure, application to common research and clinical questions, and the advantages and limitations of the technique. Chapters are authored by experts in each topic area, and the book is written with a non-expert audience in mind. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a noninvasive imaging technique that allows quantification of many neurochemicals. MRS is used in clinical neuroscience as a method for investigating brain neurochemistry, critical to understanding neurological and psychiatric disease. Improved acquisition and analysis approaches have increased interest in its use for traditional clinical applications and neuroscience research; this book meets the growing need of neuroscientists, neurologists, psychiatrists, and radiologists for reliable information on the technique.
