SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR LOCALLY CORRELATED SPECTROSCOPY FOR ASSESSING MEDICAL DISORDERS

摘要

Systems and methods for analyzing metabolite concentration in a subject using a medical imaging system are provided. The method includes, using a nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR] system, acquiring data from a subject during multiple acquisitions using different echo times for the multiple acquisitions to create a chemical shift domain. The method also includes, using the chemical shift domain, identifying metabolites by at least two chemical shifts and generating a report indicating the metabolites.
