Metabolite profile from the mouse nucleus accumbens using in vivo 16.4T MRS and LCModel. (A) Representative RARE images of 1.0 mm thick coronal and sagittal brain sections where the 8 μl volume of interest (VOI) is centered on the nucleus accumbens. Scale bar = 2 mm. (B) Representative brain metabolite spectrum acquired using in vivo 16.4T. See Table 1 for abbreviation of labeled brain metabolites. (C) LCModel best fit of the brain metabolite spectrum in Fig. 2B and residual difference.
