The water peak was near 4.7 parts permillion (ppm), and the lipid peak was near 1.3 ppm.Analysis of variance revealed that differences in thelipid peak, the area under the lipid peak, ratio of thelipid peak to the water peak, and ratio of the areaunder the lipid peak to the area under the waterpeak were statistically significant among the groups.Specifically, as the severity of fatty liver increased, thevalue of each index increased correspondingly. In thepairwise comparisons, the mean lipid peak, area underthe lipid peak, ratio of the lipid peak to the waterpeak, and ratio of the area under the lipid peak to thearea under the water peak were significantly differentbetween the no fatty liver and moderate fatty liver groups, whereas no differences were noted betweenthe severe fatty liver group and the mild or moderatefatty liver group. Area under the ROC curve (AUC) ofarea ratio in lipid and water and ratio in lipid and waterin the no fatty liver group to mild fatty liver group, mildfatty liver group to moderate fatty liver group, andmoderate fatty liver disease group to severe fatty livergroup, were 0.705, 0.900, and 0.975, respectively.CONCLUSION: 1H MRS is a noninvasive techniquethat can be used to provide information on the effectof liver steatosis on hepatic metabolic processes. Thisstudy indicates that the 1H MRS can be used as anindicator of steatosis in patients with chronic hepatitis C.展开更多

Measurements of glycogen and lipids in muscle were measured using 13C and 1H MRS respectively.RESULTS: In the brain, increased signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and dispersion allows spectral separation of the amino-acids glutamate, glutamine and γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), without the need for sophisticated editing sequences. Improved quantification of these metabolites is demonstrated at 7T relative to 3T. SNR was 36% higher, and measurement repeatability (% coefficients of variation) was 4%, 10% and 10% at 7T, vs 8%, 29% and 21% at 3T for glutamate, glutamine and GABA respectively. Measurements at 7T were used to compare metabolite levels in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) and insula. Creatine and glutamate levels were found to be significantly higher in the insula compared to the ACC (P < 0.05). In muscle, the increased SNR and spectral resolution at 7T enables interleaved studies of glycogen (13C) and intra-myocellular lipid (IMCL) and extra-myocellular lipid (EMCL) (1H) following exercise and re-feeding. Glycogen levels were significantly decreased following exercise (-28% at 50% VO2 max; -58% at 75% VO2 max). Interestingly, levels of glycogen in the hamstrings followed those in the quadriceps, despite reduce exercise loading. No changes in IMCL and EMCL were found in the study.CONCLUSION: The demonstrated improvements in brain and muscle MRS measurements at 7T will increase the potential for use in investigating human metabolism and changes due to pathologies.展开更多
