书目名称 | MR Spectroscopy of Pediatric Brain Disorders | 编辑 | Stefan Blüml,Ashok Panigrahy | 视频video | | 概述 | This text allows practitioners to master the basics of MRS, which allows physicians to obtain biochemical information about the tissues of the human body in a noninvasive way.Includes supplementary ma | 图书封面 |  | 描述 | .Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a modality available on most clinical MR scanners and readily integrated with standard MR imaging (MRI). For the brain in particular, MRS has been a powerful research tool providing additional clinically relevant information for several disease families such as brain tumors, metabolic disorders, and systemic diseases. The most widely-available MRS method, proton (.1.H; hydrogen) spectroscopy, is FDA approved for general use in the US and can be ordered by clinicians for patient studies if indicated...There are several books available that describe applications of MRS in adults. However, to the best of our knowledge there is currently no book available that focuses exclusively on applications in pediatrics. MR spectroscopy in the pediatric population is different from adults for two main reasons. Particularly in the newborn phase the brain undergoes biochemical maturation with dramatic changes of the "normal" biochemical fingerprint. Secondly, brain diseases in the pediatric population are different from adult disorders. For example, brain tumors, which are mostly gliomas in the adults, often originate from different cell types and are also | 出版日期 | Book 2013 | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-1-4419-5864-8 | isbn_softcover | 978-1-4899-8763-1 | isbn_ebook | 978-1-4419-5864-8 | copyright | Springer Science+Business Media, LLC 2013 |
