Abstract
The 1H lactate/n-acetyl aspartate ratio is commonly used for the quantitation of brain lactate under pathological conditions. We demonstrate that the intensity of the lactate methyl region in water-suppressed, nonedited 1H spectra increases following mild brain trauma as a result of factors other than lactate accumulation.Entities:
