Abstract
In vivo nuclear magnetic resonance 31P spectroscopy was used to demonstrate different patterns of high energy phosphate metabolism in a group of malignant tumours of glial origin. In some of the more malignant tumours a decrease in adenylate energy charge was found. This was associated with a decline in phosphocreatine and an increase in sugar phosphate and inorganic phosphorus.
