When subtracting MRS data, which is commonly done in
J-difference editing techniques, it is of great
importance that spectra are accurately phase and
frequency aligned with respect to each other. To allow
accurate phase and frequency alignment, we present a
simple, robust and fast alignment algorithm, based on
maximizing the normalized scalar product between two
spectra.
