2-hydroxyglutarate (2HG) is the first imaging biomarker for IDH-mutated gliomas. High-spatial resolution spectroscopic imaging of 2HG is clinically important. We propose a new EPSI read-out scheme to overcome the conventional limitation of EPSI spectral bandwidth at high field. With SNR and linewidth benefit at 7T, we demonstrated the in vivo feasibility of this new EPSI method in mapping of 2HG and other important brain metabolites in normal subject and glioma patients at 7T.
