What Does MRS Stand For?

MRS stands for Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy

Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy (MRS) is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that uses magnetic resonance imaging principles to analyze the chemical composition of tissues. It provides metabolic information about specific biochemical compounds within the body, making it valuable in research and clinical settings for diagnosing diseases, monitoring treatment responses, and studying metabolic changes in various conditions, particularly in neurobiology and oncology. MRS complements traditional MRI by offering insights into tissue metabolism, enhancing the understanding of disease processes.
