Metabolite concentrations and myelin water fraction : correlations and trends within white matter measured with magnetic resonance spectroscopy and T₂ Relaxation techniques

Absolute concentrations of in vivo human brain metabolites, N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA), choline (Cho) and creatine (Cre) were measured using single voxel spectroscopy. Myelin water fractions (MWF) were measured with a 48 echo T₂ relaxation pulse sequence. NAA is a possible neuronal marker, choline may...
