MRS signal quantitation: a review of time- and frequency-domain methods

J Magn Reson. 2008 Dec;195(2):134-44. doi: 10.1016/j.jmr.2008.09.005. Epub 2008 Sep 11.

Abstract

In this paper an overview of time-domain and frequency-domain quantitation methods is given. Advantages and drawbacks of these two families of quantitation methods are discussed. An overview of preprocessing methods, such as lineshape correction methods or unwanted component removal methods, is also given. The choice of the quantitation method depends on the data under investigation and the pursued objectives.
