Abstract:Metabolic imaging in clinical practice has long relied on positron emission tomography (PET) with fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG), a radioactive tracer. However, this conventional method presents inherent limitations such as exposure to ionizing radiation and potential diagnostic uncertainties, particularly in organs with heightened glucose uptake like the brain. This review underscores the transformative potential of traditional deuterium magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) when integrated with gradient techniques… Show more
