Title: 31P localized spectroscopy of fetal brain in utero. Author: Nakada T, Kwee IL. Journal: Magn Reson Med; 1993 Jan; 29(1):122-4. PubMed ID: 8419732. Abstract: 31-Phosphorus (31P) nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy of fetal brain in utero was obtained entirely noninvasively in rat utilizing image selected in vivo spectroscopy (ISIS). The results were in excellent agreement with the data obtained using the surface coil method in the late stage fetus, namely, high phosphomonoester (PME), low phosphocreatine (PCr), and high intracellular pH. Localized spectroscopy provides unprecedented opportunities for the investigation of fetal brain metabolism in utero.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
