Abstract:
The spectra of normal and abnormal muscle were examined by 31P MR spectroscopy using a 2 Tesla system. Exercise tests on normal and abnormal muscle were also carried out. Abnormal muscles showed characteristic changes in the phosphorus spectrum, when compared with normal muscles, both at rest and after exercise; these were compared with the data from the MR images. The advantages and limitations of the method are discussed.
