MR spectroscopy is an important tool for the non-invasive measurement of brain metabolite levels in various neuropsychiatric disorders. Knowledge of the reproducibility of metabolite measurements in patients is important in studying metabolite changes due to disease progression and/or treatment. In this study, we assess the 1-week reproducibility of the metabolite concentration measurements made at 7 Tesla using the semi-LASER and STEAM sequences, in a cohort of subjects with stable, chronic schizophrenia.
