In our efforts to investigate whether the TE 30 PRESS or the TE-averaged acquisition method is more advantageous in detecting glutamate and glutamine for our HIV-1 associated MCMD study, we have found that the TE-averaged acquisition provides a better Gln detection than the TE 30 PRESS method, but no significant differences were found in their abilities detecting Glu and NAA.
