Popis: Localized, in vivo 1H magnetic resonance spectroscopy has been performed in a number of brain regions of neuropsychiatric interest in male and female control subjects to determine if gender and region affect the measured metabolite ratios. In contrast to some previous reports, no significant differences were seen in any region for any metabolite ratio between males and females. As expected, significant variations with brain region were seen for metabolite ratios for the total group of subjects.
