The purpose of this study was to compare fat quantification on fish using MRI water/fat separation with localized spectroscopy (MRS) and with chemical analysis. 36 samples inside a wild salmon were used for MRI vs. MRS and 15 salmon cutlets for MRI vs. chemical analysis. MRI images and MRS spectra were acquired at 1.5T. We used GRE with 6 echoes and the VarPro reconstruction method proposed by Hernando (MRM 2010, 63-1). High correlations were found in both cases. Very good agreement was found between MRI and MRS while and overestimation of fat content was observed for MRI versus chemical analysis.
