Some quantitative aspects of P magnetic resonance spectroscopy in vivo in an exercise physiology context
Phosphorous NMR spectroscopy (PMRS) has become a very important tool in biological research, since it allows non-invasive recording of essential features of tissue energy metabolism at a high time resolution. Here I present some of the concepts and key features of the technique as applied to human skeletal muscle with physical exercise as the main principle of intervention. Key-words: PMRS, ske...
متن کاملNuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy: a tool for skeletal muscle metabolic research.
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy provides non-invasive and non-destructive access to the chemistry of human tissue in situ. Two studies presented in this issue of the Journal [1, 2] apply this new technique on skeletal muscle metabolism in patients with chronic lung disease. In the 1940s, E. Purcell and F. Bloch discovered that electromagnetic radio-frequency energy could be used to inte...
متن کاملMetabolic imaging Nuclear magnetic resonance for the study of cardiac metabolism in diabetes
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy is the only non invasive method, not involving exposure to radiation, that allows study of the cardiac metabolism, without the use of a tracer. In the past, most studies of cardiac metabolism were performed with spectroscopy, in different cardiac scenarios (ischemic cardiac diseases, heart failure, for example). This technique should be useful to evaluate and mon...
متن کاملC nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy – a non - invasive in vivo method to measure muscle glycogen metabolism in pigs of different genotypes
The three ryanodine receptor 1 gene variants (NN: homozygous normal, Nn: heterozygous, nn: homozygous defective) and the degree of Hampshire origin (0 %, 25 %, 50 %) serve as model for the investigation of the in vivo glycogen muscle metabolism in 27 pigs. The pigs originate from 4 different cross-breeding lines with an age varying between 41 and 58 days and a body weight between 7.3 and 19 kg....
متن کاملDetection of Glioblastoma Multiforme Tumor in Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy Based on Support Vector Machine
Introduction: The brain tumor is an abnormal growth of tissue in the brain, which is one of the most important challenges in neurology. Brain tumors have different types. Some brain tumors are benign and some brain tumors are cancerous and malignant. Glioblastoma Multiforme (GBM) is the most common and deadliest malignant brain tumor in adults. The average survival rate for peo...
