Abstract:Changes in Aspartate (Asp) concentrations are a potential biomarker of malate-aspartate shuttle dysfunction, as well as disturbances in the synthesis of NAA. J-difference editing allows the detection of a resolved Asp signal at δAsp ≈ 2.71ppm. This resonance has a complex shape and therefore approximation of the Asp signal is a challenging task. In our study we compare the performance of six Asp-approximation models applied to data from three brain regions (anterior cingulate gyrus (ACC), d… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
