The determination of accurate transverse (T2) relaxation
times for brain metabolites is essential for volume
tissue composition correction methods including
relaxation correction. Therefore, T2 relaxation times of
18 brain metabolites at 3T are presented for the first
time as measured in predominantly grey matter of 83
healthy volunteers.
