Hitherto, signal combination strategies from separate coil elements have been evaluated on the basis of spectral SNR improvement. This study compared various combination methods for two representative GABA measurement techniques: GABA editing and short echo time acquisitions, and investigated which signal combination method is optimal in terms of GABA quantification using LCModel.
