Abstract
The sensitivity of in vivo MRS of the N-delta proton of the proximal histidine of deoxymyoglobin in human skeletal muscles is discussed. Longitudinal relaxation time T1 of this deoxymyoglobin signal was measured in cuffed human forearms at 1.5 T and found to be 9.9 ms. Deoxymyoglobin spectra can be obtained from a forearm in seconds. The detection sensitivity of deoxymyoglobin in fully ischemic skeletal muscles and that of 31P MRS of PCr in normal resting muscles are compared.
