Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) of the Brain

Definition

Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) of the brain is a non-invasive diagnostic procedure that uses magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology to analyze the chemical composition of brain tissue. It provides information about the metabolic processes and biochemical changes occurring within the brain, which can help in diagnosing various neurological disorders, tumors, and other abnormalities.
