Chronic liver disease leads to Hepatic Encephalopathy - spectrum of neuropsychiatrical disorders. We investigated potential neurometabolic differences between two key brain regions (hippocampus and cerebellum). Cerebellum shows similar increase of glutamine but lower tNAA, Tau, Cr, Asc and different osmotic response indicating that these regions are influenced unequaly.
