A 3T study is presented, comparing the ability of two 1H spectroscopy pulse sequences, Carr Purcell PRESS (CPRESS) (TE=45ms) and conventional PRESS (TE=35ms), to separate between groups of 20 normal control (NC) and 20 mild cognitive impairment (MCI) subjects. Both sequences showed higher myo-Inositol (mI) and mI/N-acetyl-aspartate (NAA) levels in the posterior cingulate gyrus of the MCI subjects. The increased intra-subject repeatability of mI and mI/NAA CPRESS measurements (~6% vs. ~9% for PRESS) translated into decreased intra-class variability. A 22% intra-class mI PRESS variability reduced to 16% for CPRESS, and an 18% intra-class mI/NAA PRESS variability reduced to 12% for CPRESS for the group of NC subjects. Similar results were observed for the MCI subjects. Decreased intra-class variability led to improved separation between NC and MCI subjects (p=0.017 for PRESS and p<0.0001 for CPRESS mI/NAA, the best NC/MCI discriminant for each method). 75% sensitivity at 80% specificity was demonstrated by mI/NAA CPRESS measurements in separating NC from MCI subjects. High correlations were also observed between subject performance on a number of neuropsychological tests (probing verbal memory, visuoconstruction performance and visual motor integration) and the mI/NAA ratio; higher correlation coefficients (with stronger statistical significance) were consistently evident for CPRESS than for PRESS data.
