Purpose: We herein present a spectroscopic technique for the detection of scalar-coupled metabolites based on stimulated echo acquisition mode (STEAM). The method is based on the time evolution of scalar-coupled metabolites at different mixing times and a constant echo time. The technique is optimized for targeting the metabolite glutamate at...

Magnetic Resonance (MR) Imaging and Spectroscopy of the muscle is a valuable tool in the diagnosis and monitoring of Neuromuscular Disorders (NMD). New Ultra-High Field (UHF) 7 T MRI systems, with their enhanced Signal-to-Noise Ratio, may offer increased image quality in terms of spatial resolution and/or shorter scanning time compared to lower...
