Test-retest precision of brain metabolites in healthy participants using 31P-MRS and 1H MEGA-PRESS on a 3T multi-nuclear MRI system
Both the <sup>31</sup>P-MRS and <sup>1</sup>H-MEGA-PRESS sequences showed high precision in measuring brain metabolites, but some metabolites showed higher stability than others. These results are crucial for exploring the clinical and research applications of these methods, and provide a solid foundation for subsequent investigations.
