In Vivo Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Spectroscopy: Application to Brain Tumors

  • Chapter
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Imaging in Neurochemistry

Part of the book series: Advances in Neurochemistry ((ANCH,volume 8))

Summary

This chapter contains an overview of the relatively recent applications of magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopy for studies of experimental and human brain tumors. Specific examples have been chosen to demonstrate the unique possibilities offered by magnetic resonance techniques to advance our understanding of the physiology, biochemistry, and therapeutic response of brain tumors.
