What is it indicated for?
The Hitachi Echelon MR Spectroscopy Package is intended for use as a non-invasive
diagnostic device that provides information based on relative concentrations of
metabolites in body tissues. This NMR data in the form of spectra or spectral images
reflect the NMR properties of proton density, spin-lattice relaxation time (T1), spin-spin
relaxation time (T2), and chemical shift. When interpreted by a trained medical
practitioner, these spectral data provide information that can be useful in making a
diagnosis.
Anatomical Region: Head, Whole Body
Nucleus excited: 1H
