OBJECTIVE Abnormalities in frontal lobe phosphorous metabolism in patients with bipolar disorder have been reported, but many of the patients studied were receiving lithium. In this study, medication-free bipolar patients were examined to determine abnormalities in frontal lobe high-energy phosphorous metabolism. METHOD In vivo phosphorous-31 magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging was perfo...
