Abstract Background The aim of our study was to determine the value of single-voxel proton MR spectroscopy (1HMRS) in distinguishing benign from malignant focal bone lesions in the peripheral skeleton. MRI and 1HMRS was performed in 50 focal lesions (> 1 cm size) detected on radiographs of peripheral skeleton.1HMRS was performed at 1.5 T with TE of 144 ms with automatic shimming and water suppression. Qualitative analysis for a discrete choline peak at 3.2 ppm was done. Significance of the presence of choline peak on 1HMRS in distinguishing benign from malignant lesions was calculated using histopathology as a gold standard. Chi-square test was used and p value |
