Brain Metabolites
Substances produced during metabolism, which occur and can be measured in the brain, providing insights into brain function and health.
Concussion
Damage to the brain caused by a blow to the head.
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy is a non-invasive diagnostic technique that uses magnetic fields and radio waves to analyze the chemical composition of tissues, often used in conjunction with MRI for brain imaging.
