Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) The map of metabolite ratio Cho/Cr. (C) the map of metabolite ratio NAA/Cr. (E) the map of metabolite ratio Cho + Cr/ NAA. (B, D, and F) Isolines of metabolite ratios which enclosed the tumor region of Cho/Cr, NAA/Cr, and Cho + Cr/ NAA, respectively. All images obtained by point-resolved spectroscopy TE = 144 ms and 512 data points for better display of pseudoMRSI image, the metabolite ratios were multiplied by 10.
Article Snippet: Using the MATLAB software (64 Bit, v R2016b), the boundaries of the metabolite map or the MRS voxel matrix was determined on the sagittal images of the gel-based phantom.
