The quantitation of absolute metabolite concentrations
via Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy using water as an
internal concentration standard, requires the accurate
determination of the compartmentation within the
localized region of interest. Previous work has shown
that different segmentation approaches yield different
estimates of metabolite levels in Grey matter [1]. In
this study, we investigated the test-retest reliability
of absolute metabolite quantitation using two commonly
used segmentation algorithms.
