To identify the pulse sequence and acquisition parameters that result in the most accurate and repeatable measurements of glutamate (Glu) concentration in the brain at 3T. Simulations were performed to compare the accuracy and repeatability of eleven pulse sequences and acquisition parameters, within four general classes (PRESS, STEAM, Car-Purcell PRESS (CPRESS) and TE averaged PRESS (JPRESS)), the majority of which were previously suggested as optimal for Glu detection. Three of the simulated acquisitions were implemented in a clinical scanner, and measures of repeatability in vivo were compared to their simulated values. Good agreement was demonstrated between simulated and experimentally determined measures of repeatability. Among the acquisitions considered, a CPRESS sequence with minimal echo time, together with, possibly, a short TE PRESS sequence, result in the most repeatable Glu measurements, while slightly overestimating the Glu concentration. Excellent accuracy is demonstrated by the simulations for a JPRESS sequence, at the expense of lower repeatability than optimal PRESS or CPRESS sequences. Further proof of concept is presented towards validation of a simulation approach to understand pulse sequence performance in measuring the concentration of a given metabolite. Improved Glu measurement repeatability is predicted for CPRESS and demonstrated .
