Table 1:

Measured concentration (mmol/kg) of the 5 quantified metabolites for a test-retest involving three subjects, referenced to an assumed creatine concentration of 8.00 mmol/kg. Subjects were scanned twice within the same session, then removed from the scanner and repositioned. Values reported are the means (± standard deviation) over the two intra-session scans.
