Magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) is a technique which combines the ability of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) to differentiate molecules with the imaging features of localization unique to magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). This provides a “molecular window” into the component chemistry of a given tissue, allowing for unique insight into physiologic or disease (pathophysiologic) processes. MRS requires no injected contrast agent and no ionizing radiation is involved, which are obvious safety benefits.There are many applications of MRS to imaging of brain tumors which have been explored, some of which have already reached clinical practice and others which have been confined predominantly to research applications (Table 1). In clinical application, MRS can potentially differentiate primary brain tumors from other potential mimics, such as demyelinating disease, lymphoma, or infection. Additionally, the “molecular signatures” of high-grade and low-grade tumors often differ, allowing prediction of how aggressive a tumor may be. After treatment, MRS can provide insight into whether treated tissue consists predominantly of radiation necrosis or tumor, a considerable diagnostic dilemma. More research-oriented applications include surveying a tumor to locate the most aggressive area to target for biopsy and radiation therapy using high resolution whole brain spectroscopic MRI.
