This study evaluated the performance of automatically prescribed 3D MRSI protocol in patients with brain tumors. The data shows robust coverage of the tumor, high consistency of prescription and very good data quality within the T2 lesion. It validates the feasibility of automatically prescribed 3D MRSI in routine brain tumor imaging.
