Description

In order to assess the PME constituents on 31P in vivo MR spectra with unresolved PME peak, we developed a method to manipulate the chemical shift of PME and pH. This method was applied to spectra from 14 malignant extremity tumors, and the results were consistent with high resolution NMR data appeared in previous literature. This analytical method might make an good estimation of the major constituents of the PME peak in case a decoupling technique is not available for in vivo spectroscopy. (author)
