In situ 3D magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) was combined with focused-beam microwave irradiation (FBMI) and multicoil (MC) shimming. MC shimming has previously been shown to greatly improve the magnetic field homogeneity in vivo. Similar improvements were achieved on the FBMI samples as judged from B0 maps and water 3D MRSI datasets. As a demonstration of the improved data quality GABA-edited 3D MRSI was performed.
