Whole brain temperature mapping is of great interest for investigating traumatic brain injuries. Single-voxel-spectroscopy (SVS) and CSI approaches provides limited spatial coverage in the brain, whereas 3D Echo-planar spectroscopic imaging (EPSI), covers the entire brain for investigating temperature and metabolism in traumatic brain injury (TBI) subjects. Our study aims at implementation of EPSI, calibration and validation of the temperature measurement in brain phantoms using EPSI and SVS at pre-clinical and clinical scanners, to study and analysis of whole brain temperature in TBI studies on rodents and humans.
