Abstract:
In this overview the physics of magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) are briefly discussed. The biochemical pathways which can be investigated by MRS in physiological and pathological states are presented. The potential clinical applications of this method to the musculoskeletal system, heart, brain, liver and kidney are examined.
