1H MR spectroscopy of neurometabolic disorder. (a, b) White
matter spectra (1.5 T, PRESS MR spectroscopic imaging, 3000/30, six weighted averages,
nominal voxel size = 10 × 10 × 15 mm3) in girl with guanidinoacetate
methyltransferase deficiency before treatment at age 3 years 2 months (a)
and after 3.5 months of treatment with oral creatine supplementation (b).
Resonance from creatine-containing metabolites (tCr) returned to normal in this region
as well as in other investigated brain areas.
