Analysis of intracranial mass lesions using proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy at 1.0 T: pictorial essay.
2000
SUMMARY
Proton MR spectroscopy has been used to characterize the spectroscopic profiles of a wide variety of neurological disease processes. In particular, the spectroscopic characteristics of a range of focal intracranial mass lesions have been described. The use of proton MR spectroscopy has until recently been restricted to major research centres with high-field MR scanners. The spectroscopic findings in a number of illustrative cases imaged at Royal Perth Hospital using a 1-T scanner are described here. The cases illustrated in the present paper confirm the clinical utility of proton MR spectroscopy as a supplement to conventional MR in routine radiological practice.
